OD+ Icon Problems

from WinCustomize Forums

Hi there,

I recently aquired ObjectDesktop Plus, and after some browsing of the menu loaded in the 'default.ini' theme. Then my Dock just went to mush. I downloaded a theme pack, and installed it all properly, however I found that the Icons were too large for the background. It's really bugging me and I'm not sure how to solve it. I've got an example of what I mean here:

 

 

And this is the screen shot of the theme:

 

Annoyingly I can get everything to work how I want when I uninstall OD+ and install regular OD, so I'm also wondering if OD+ is supposed to look how the one in the first screen shot looks, or can it look like the latter?

 

Thanks in advance.

Purchased from Stardock or otherwise, OD+ should not look like your first pic, it will be the same as the free version.

Do you mean ObjectDock Plus? I don't know what you mean by browsing the menu and loading in the default .ini theme. Does this mean that you clicked on the "Configure ObjectDock" icon, and chose a background in the Appearance section?

In any case, try clicking on a "Configure ObjectDock" icon, and click on either "Size & Appearance" if it's a tabbed dock, then click the "Adjust tab colors and styles" button, and from there adjust the icon size, or click on "Appearance" if it's a zoomer dock (as it is in your shot), and adjust the icon size from there.

I created the theme you're using. Where did you install it?

When you downloaded it, you should have gotten a .zip folder. That entire zipped folder should have been extracted to one of two places:

C:\Program Files\Stardock\ObjectDock\Backgrounds

-or-

C:\Users\"Your User"\Documents\Stardock\ObjectDock Library\Backgrounds
