I finally got this error fixed by disabling UAC. BTW, how do you install themes? I place them in the /skins folder but then the theme doesn't appear on the menu. I'm using the latest version of XWD.

Yeah, that's how to do it! But don't forget to restart the dock!

Well, whatever you think is best is best, of course, looking forward to it

I found a new bug and its really annoying.

I can't click on the bottom left of my screen because for some reason its being taken up by XWindows Dock.

I know this sounds weird and its hard to explain so I'll try to show you the best I can.

For some reason the whole area inside the red square is considered the dock. I can't click on windows or icons that are inside that area. Its really annoying. I guess the only way to solve this would be an update to the dock so I hope the developer watches this thread.

I always restart the dock after placing the .smxd file, but still the theme doesn't appear on the menu. :/

I have the same issue... especially while I'm listening to music on iTunes and trying to make a playlist I just can't move files to lists bar because it's loosing focus.

[BOBAH13]

mcshield: if you don't like my dock then you must tell me what is wrong with the dock ? because now you posted 3 post without any arguments!

[username3d3]

Mcshield, there is no reason to triple post dude, don't get impatient, Bobah will read your post.

BTW: Bobah will there be an update for windows reflection because, right now it's kind of buggy?

Then it's not my dock make your PC slow, it's your NOD32 I have got Avira and I haven't any bugs with my dock. and even I have only 2600Mhz (work 1800) CPU and Radeon 9600 and I enable all options (effects) and it takes me only 60% of CPU when I move windows over the dock... and I looked at the magnification... yes my dock hasn't got well magnification effect yet, but it takes 80% as object dock takek 100% So of course I'm going to rewrite code of magnification and then you will be able to change count of icons in magnicating.

[webran61]

The size ratio between the dock and the icons are weird for each dock that I have used. Is there an option to change the sizing of the actual dock, so that the icons are not completely contained within the borders of a non-2D dock?

[Phoshi]

Emphasis on YOUR nod32, mine doesn't

[mcshield]

when I run xwindows dock, I can't open IE,and if I open storm player or other any media player it says "windows main process rundll32 stop working"

[zexe]

suddenly i found that the settings (Preferences) window has changed it's frame size, becoming smaller, and the lower part is not visible, but still accessible (i tabbed myself till i hit the apply button).

This is taken on Vista 32 Business

mcshield, just don't use XWindows Dock, if you have so many problems with it.

If you really want to help to improve XWD with your "Bug Reports", you should tell us more! Just "This is not working" or "That is not working" does not help at all, because all these things ARE working very fine for 99% of the users, so it HAS to do with YOUR configuration and with what YOU do.

So we need more Information! For example, what does "can't open IE" mean? can't you open it from the Desktop, from the startmenu or from the Dock? Do you get any error message for this, too? What is your graphic card? Vista 64 or 32? What exactly do you do?... Be more detailed, please!

@mcshield

I agree with atreiu, sorry.

(Sometimes, I got an error when I clicked Apply Button)

[skdj]

Hey BOBAH, sorry bother you again, but I found this bug on latest version, I don´t know if someone already post it but, each time i open the dock preferences window and make any change, when i click the apply button the dock disappears leaving only a really transparent dock showing nothing no icons and nothing, my setting are to hide the dock after 2 secs.

Someone else have this problem?

[remorema]

when XwindowsDock is open IE7 in vista x86 returns rundll32 error when trying to clean history, or simply changing html editor. about any changes to ie7 causes rundll32 when XwindowsDock is open.

too bad because its a fine dock.

The reflection start when we aproach the bar, not when we are on it. If you put a high magnificaiton number you will easely see what I mean.

[atreiu]

That's true. It seem like XWD uses the magnificated dimension to trigger the magnification. For example: if I have icon size=40px and icon size when hovered=150px, then the magnification starts when my mouse-pointer is 110px above the icon itself. I hope Bobah will fix this in a later release

[Mattey]

Between I found a small bug. The reflection start when we aproach the bar, not when we are on it. If you put a high magnificaiton number you will easely see what I mean.

Also, would it be possible to make the magnification effect continue a bit after the last icon on each side, so it size starts to decrease a bit?

That's totally true, BOBAH13. That's why I say magnification should activate when we are on the icon, not on the "magnification zone".

What I mean is this:

For example, if I have 500 pixels of magnification, the dock takes 500 pixels of the desktop to activate magnification, so when I put the mouse over the 500th. pixel, the magnification activates, no matter the little size of my icons.

That's why I said before I had a problem with the fan stacks: I had a 100pixel magnification, and I wasn't able to click the first icon, because magnification activated and the stack moved.

I think this is a critical bug which MUST be fixed.

Thanks for reading.

[BOBAH13]

Mattey: it has been done already... just wait for a new realese... I'm prepearing a lot of new things

[Shark1217]

My problem is the exsculstion list doesn't work. I tried everything from setting the window to setting the app name. I am using 32 bit vista premium.
