The only thing this setting changes is the font for the text that appears if you hover over the icon. All other font settings (eg tabs, icons etc) are not configurable - although it's been much requested. Maybe it'll happen in a future update.

Thanks! I was adding some of my most used URLs, and shortcuts to related programs and frequently used directories on my harddrive, so many the icons looked basically the same (for example, for packages that have related programs, all using the same exact icon)-- that's why I decided to have the names showing all the time. I already got rid of text like 'shortcut to', and still I cant' get rid of the ambiguities, if I'm going to make good use of this product. Right now, I suppose, its still easier for me to bring up the start menu because of this limitation 8-(. Darn it! Maybe I can't get rid of some of my icons on my desktop after all (I was trying to clean up -- my PC desktop is about as messy now as my real desktop).
Under the 'Positioning' dialog you need to untick "Automatic Distance From Edge" and set the slider to the distance you do want. Seems like even if the Windows taskbar is hidden, OD still tries to adjust it's position to where it would be if the taskbar was visible.

Umm, I don't have that option on my Positioning dialog at all... I only have the following options:
"Show Dock as Drawer", "Mouseover Activation" (also has a slider slow to fast), "Tabs always on Top" (with the suboptions "Don't show in tray or taskbar", "Show in taskbar", "Show in system tray"), and "Reserve edge or screen". That last one sounds like what you might be talking about, except that its already unchecked and has no slider associated with it.
For the 'Jumping Icon' problem, sorry - no idea! |
Well if it happens again, I'll have to deal with it. Fortunately I don't shut down that stuff all the time (only when I run this one memory-intensive game I play -- I was told that it conflicts with my HP software, but I had other problems, so I started unloading everything that's non-essential).
