LOL . . I've always ignored the Safely Remove Hardware. Never had a problem. Just don't pull USB drives mid-write and you should be fine. While the OD lock is almost certainly nothing to worry about, it does have a negative side effect. That being creating a "cry wolf" effect. The user now knows
As a brand new GalCivII buyer, this thread is a mixed pot. I should be all over the tech texts. Whining and complaining my head off. Because I'm someone that depends on those texts helping me learn the game. So far I'm about as close to accomplishing something useful in GalCivII as I am in molecular chemistry. The latter I had to look up on wiki to make sure it actually meant something. I do question the fact noone caught on to the weak texts early on and handled it pre-release. But don
For what it's worth, I had the same issue. I wanted to uninstall it and reinstall it through SDC to ensure it would be able to keep me updated. I eventually just installed it on top of the existing install via SDC. Seems to work fine.
Not having the eye-candy doesn't make the tabbed dock any less functional . Correct. It makes the normal dock less functional than what I expected. Which is what I said. Of course, FWIW, I agree with those who said they prefer the tabbed dock without the eye-candy so I guess we'd have to agree to disagree on that. Not at all. I agree with the eyecandy not being forced upon those that do not wis
I'm not sure that the eye-candy limits the "functionality" so that you have a "wasted investment" but that's an opinion I cannot judge. The wasted investment comes from me not being able to use it as I intended. Remember, the functionality I (thought) I paid for was to tab enable the normal dock. If you just blindly accept that the tabbed dock holds no interest for me, that lack of feature makes it a pointless product to me. I can't gather everything I need on the
I'll try to explain. If I fail at that once more, I'll add screenshots. Approaching midnight though so that'll have to be tomorrow. When you mouseover items in the normal dock, you get magnification of the icon under the mouse as well as the icons near it, creating a sort of wave motion as you move along. Also the dock itself dynamically resizes itself to account for the space required by the magnified icons. The tabbed docks, by comparison, are pretty static and utilitarian th
Let's go back a step and try to see what OD+ isn't doing that you want it to. The very short version: Have tabs to switch between multiple docks. The longer version: Sorry, my bad. I should've done that at the get go. I was going to make my own post asking if what I wished for was possible, but then I got sidetracked by this one. Tabbed docks not having the eyecandy, and the main dock not having tabs, are two sides of a coin to me.
I often chuckle when non-developers suggest how easy something should be. Incidently, my card claims my title is senior system engineer though my primary task currently is development. Which isn't necessarily terribly relevant considering the width of different areas and technologies those terms can apply to. But I'd like to think it's at least marginally relevant since there's some amount of client coding involved in my case. S
I doubt the tabs look good while zooming like the normal dock does. And I can imagine technical limitations to achive that effect also, especially doing skins for it, that have to look good in zoomed and unzoomed states. The tabbed docks are fine as they are, in my opinion. As a complement to the dock for those that prefer a less flashy approach. I don't want SD to touch the tabbed dock, I want them to enhance the non-tabbed one. I can't imagine
That's right, Stardock's actually a weather data provider now! Ack. So we've had to quickly learn how to handle a lot of weather data requests. They must have a different definition of "quickly" than I do, considering it's been over a month now.
trust me you won't miss the effects nough said. You're assuming everybody on the planet shares your preference. I, for one, do not. What I'd like is to have tabs on my dock. That's how I thought it worked before I bought the plus version. I was mightily disappointed to discover the tabbed docks were a completely different beast. So now I either have to have a bunch of separate docks, or a regular dock and a tabbed dock. I can't for the life
