Stardock Object Dock 1.6 - Vorschau
Stardock Object Dock 1.6 - Vorschau
We're going to be doing an alpha preview of the next version within the next few days that has many new features and improvements, including:
# Brand new improved weather docklet with a really-cool flyout for the 5-day forecast
# Live-thumbnails and super-smooth-never-flashes-on-finish minimizing/restoring animations on Vista, that don't mess with your system/hide windows on you/etc. (zooming docks only currently)
# Ability on Vista to show previews of files/folders that offer previews as icons, e.g. PDF files, XPS files, Folders, movies, .Dream's, etc etc.
# Brand new completly redone System Tray system that works great on Vista, including the new special icons (volume, power, etc)
# Taskbars that can show minimized tasks only / non-minimized tasks only (zooming docks only currently)
# Better-than-ever overall performance thanks to time spent reducing CPU usage & overhead, further improved zoom algorithms to make for as smooth experience as possible
# Start Menu & Show Desktop docklets (not in inital alpha, but will be in v1.6 final)
# Adjustable zoom-in/zoom-out speeds, and setting to have icons have a set base-transparency-level (not in inital alpha, but will be in v1.6 final)
# Many fixes of glitches users have reported
# New included artwork (not in inital alpha, but will be in v1.6 final)
The first outting will be made available on Stardock Central for registered users, and will be marked as "alpha" not "beta" as it'll be the first time most of these things will be out in the wild. We're hoping the problems will be at a minimum - For those reporting problems however, please put "1.6" somewhere in the post title so I know it's the new version you're posting about!
I hope you all enjoy the awesome new features of ObjectDock - alpha for v1.6 coming soon!

Ja, da wird fleissig gewerkelt. 
Wenn man sich mal die sonstigen Ankündigungen durchliest... Leider ist die Taktrate niedriger geworden, ist halt nicht mehr die kleine Softwareschmiede, bei der ein paar Leute und Enthusiasten noch aktiv am Produkt mitgearbeitet haben, weil Modding noch nicht so bekannt war.
Ich denke allerdings, wir werden mit Vista in der Zukunft noch einige geile Sachen in dieser Richtung sehen.
