ObjectDock Tray 2.10

Description

This docklet for ObjectDock shows the icons from the Windows system tray (information area) in a docklet icon. The icons in the docklet have the same functionality like the icons in the windows system tray. It even works if the Windows Taskbar is hidden.
New in this version:
Now there is the feature to cutomize every icon. Simply go to configuration dialog and replace the icons you want to replace. You can find a list containing the actual known icons with their numbers below. You can also put multiple instances of the docklet to your dock and so have full size icons (by activating to only show selcted icons in the tray)
Another way to replace icons is to close ObjectDock (!), browse to %docklets path%\tray\xptheme\ and replace the png files containing the images you want to replace. To restore a default icon simply delete the files.

Installation

extract the archive into:
"<ObjectDock Path>\docklets\tray\"
Than right click on a seperator and select
"Add\ObjectDock Tray"

If you want to configure ObjectDock Tray or reload the systray icons, press your left mouse button on the docklet for 2 secounds or click on area without icons (eg. border or space on the bottom).

Known problems

  • If the Trayicons don't appear immediately don't be surprised, it may take a few secounds until the Docklet have load the icons.
  • Sometimes a contextmenu does not close if you click outside it without selecting an menuitem. You may have to click on a separator or on the small border of the menu and then click elsewhere to close it.
  • With ObjectDock Plus the docklet label doesn't change on mouseover.
  • On Vista operating sytem the system icons sound and network won't show up because they aren't tray icons anymore

    • Thanks
