Just to clarify how to get Stacks to work properly in tabbed docks:
1. Right-click on the Configure ObjectDock icon in the tabbed dock (yes, you have to do it on the icon itself).
2. Select "This Dock"
3. Select "Position on Screen"
4. Select "Top"
OD+ defaults to Position on Screen Bottom whenever it opens, so you have to repeat this process each time for the docklet to work.
Which is what I was trying to do.
That's what has to be done. I GOT IT! WoooHoooo! Thanks Chuck. Karma your way.
Okay, mess--I guess that means I gotta get goin' on some tabbers for you!
After carefully looking at all the problems from this forum, getting this to work was quite simple. Of course already having knowledge of fly-out menu functions was a big help to necessitate this feature for me in the first place.
And while I do admit that this is a new and neat looking way to access drives, folders and what not, I also feel strongly that this is no better, no easier and no cooler looking than a custom fly-out from OD!
Both the grid and fan options are relatively sloppy and spatially crude compared to OD's fly-outs to me. It uses up way too much desk space when assigned to large volumes. And as far as ease, I already have it easy with fly-outs!
Eventually stacked may grow on me as I play with it a bit more, but for me to say that this will ever replace my fly-outs, right now the answer is a resounding hell no!
I hope and trust that my honesty with this doesn't piss anyone off. And if it did, too bad, it's just another opinion!

If this meant that grids and stacked could possibly be incorporated as an additional option to the standard OD fly-out menu features, then I think this would be off the friggin' charts, because as it is, you can only display fly-outs one way!
Optional viewing preferences to suit one's particular taste and needs are always cool.
Wicked Badd!!! Gonna get this now!
Thanks for the heads up messiah
Guess I already had the update then! Mine always worked this way!
Thanks again for lookin' out Monkeyman!
