ObjectDock Help

October 10, 2003 3:02 PM from

Hi everybody.

Yesterday I installed ObjectDock. I really like the program, but can somebody tell me how I install downloaded Icons and backgrounds etc. Searched for tutorials on google but didn't find something usefull. If possible I would like to know where I can find a help-file that explains the working of ObjectDock. Also sorry if my question has been answered on another topic.
But because of the problems with the site, I give up my search. So thank you in advance.
Also sorry for my bad english, I'm Belgian and speak Dutch.

There is a Readme.txt in the ObjectDock directory. It contains a bunch of changes and big fixes, but at the bottom there is a How To.

There really isn't much to it though. For the icons, you need to download them to the OD directory and unzip them. Then you will have a Configure ObjectDock icon on your dock, I think it's a wheel by default? You can create a new shortcut in there under the create tab. Then right click on a shortcut on the dock, click Dock Item properties, and change image. There you can navigate to your icons.
For backgrounds just download and unzip the background to the backgrounds folder. Open Configure OD, backgrounds is on the first tab....

Since ObjectDock doesn't let you browse outside of its own directory structure, better extract the icons you want to use there too.
