Which dock prog is that? I use RocketDock, which is ok, but could use a few extra features.

Looks like object dock to me.

Which features are you after?

I just looked at RocketDock but I couldn't get the system tray to show up - unless I'm missing something?

Anyway I think I'll be sticking to my objectdock plus :)

It's not the system tray thing I'm after, I'm not looking to replace the original system tray really, but I seem to remember hearing something about OD having some kind of cascading folder ability, which would be handy as I'm kinda running out of room on RocketDock - RD just shows folders as shortcuts, like everything else.

How do you get rid of the tabbed bit. I have the plus version and it gives me the dock bit plus this tabbed section that i just cannot seem to get rid of.

Re: [Merged] Show us your Desktop or Wallpaper
 
I am only using the free version which does not have the tab section

Which tabbed bit? are you on about the dividing lines between the groups of icons?

In which case you can right click on the line and choose remove this seperator - as in the attached screeny

Go into dock settings (right click on a blank bit of dock)

Choose Manage my docks
Select the one you want rid of
Choose remove this dock and say yes to the pop-up

Hmm... Am I missing something, or do they no longer offer a trial version of Plus?

Re: [Merged] Show us your Desktop or Wallpaper
 
I don't recall ever seeing a demo of the plus version - just a free copy of the standard.

Also to get the 64bit one you HAVE to have the paid for one.

I'm sure they did at 1 point, 15 days I think it was. Might have been quite a while ago though. Is the fly-out menu option available for the expanding/magnifying type of docks, or only the tabbed kind?

Re: [Merged] Show us your Desktop or Wallpaper
 
The only fly out thing I've seen is the weather one.

But I am planning to head your way within a coupld of weeks - so you can have a fiddle with it on my laptop then :)

I found a video in a blog by somebody who works for them, which is where I saw them. If it has the option it would be under Add Entry > New Flyout Menu, but as I said that was only shown on a tabbed dock. He didn't actually say you couldn't do it on the other kind, but he didn't say you could either. :shrug:

I did that and it worked - not really a good screenshot but it is a cascading menu.

Dunno, the screenshot looks ok to me - especially the tantalisingly promising picture in the upper right-hand corner :D

Anything you want to share? :angel:
