Another MAJOR issue with the OD Taskbar:
The preview feature doesn't work in the taskbar icons. At least, not with my settings. In the screenshot, I'm using Firefox and the Stardock forum is on active tab, but the preview icon shown is stuck in an old tab that's already closed. I restarted OD but the first tab opened is stuck as the preview image, not like Windows 7 or OD 1.9. Same in every other program, the preview icon doesn't change.
On this topic, are this issues going to be fixed? If not, can I get a refund? The only reason I upgraded was because I didn't want to use the Windows 7 taskbar, and the preview feature is a big deal for me, so is the system tray problem. I thought that with this upgrade the taskbar was going to be working but it's not and I don't want to be stuck with a program that doesn't work for me.
i think a post from this thread was deleted, i believe a stardock person said they haven't seen any start menu launchers that actually worked and didn't break the redraw, well, i can confirm that it does work with the nexus dock, so maybe see how they did it?
could be i changed to another and it seems to work, although, i have not tested them all nor am i going to LOL, at least not while i'm here at work

thx..but i saw that ine...10 times stmg new...maybe...from u beta testers
Not everyone has screen recording software...
here is something funny about the missing flyout menus, there is still an option for it in additional advanced options
how do you back up your config? this option also seems to be missing, thats not good.
I just upgraded to the beta and noticed that the Run as Administrator option has gone when you right click an icon.
How can I get this back?
Im using Windows 7.
Guys,
Relax a bit. This is a BETA. How about reporting the bugs and not all the missing features you miss/want.
well, if we could get some sort of planned features list, then at least we would know it's coming.
I agree.
isn't this topic for feedback? about what we think/want/issues?
what type of performance should we be getting? it doesn't perform very well from what i can tell, are there recommending specs? things we can do to improve performance? i don't see much.
But not too much.
Seems to be a pre alpha in fact
You say that about EVERYTHING.
Backing up topic:
Under Program settings->troubleshooting there is a button that takes you to the setting folder so you can HAND COPY the files elsewhere! WOOHOO! Serioulsy, this is a feature that will be 'upgraded' to an automatic backup in final release, right?
Check your memory setting under "program settings->performance settings" might help out. default was to use only 256 mb. Also some of the settings in that section have to do with speed of zooming and autohide.
Not sure how to measure performance...checked with FRAPS and am getting roughly 30 fps...but with a qcore machine, 64 bit Win7 and 4 gigs ram i would be upset if it was choking.
Suggestions:
Tabbed Docks should have a minimum vertical size based on number of tabs. Currently, can vertically shrink dock to a point where tabs are difficult to use or access. (thought about screen wide, skinny drawers/tabs on tabs with larger number of icons )
Is there a way to change the fonts in the tabbed docks? I've tried changing the overall fonts in OD, as well as the fonts in Windows. neither had an effect on the tabbed docks.
my laptop is running windows 7 ultimate x86, 4gb of ram, core 2 duo t9500 2.6, and gf 8600m gt, but it runs like crapola, i even changed to only 256mb, lowest quality, looks and runs the same. maybe it's not actually chaning those options?
New request: Custom colorized FONTS !
Absolutely, would be great if we could specify a different font color for selected/not selected tabs.
