ObjectDock Plus - Tabbed Docks and Animation/Folder Access

I am currently trying out the freeware version of ObjectDock, and have a question about Plus.

With the tabbed docks, do they still display the mouseover animations? i.e. grow, glow, etc.

Also, is it possible to have a docklet that pops open a menu or list of items, or the cotents of a folder, without opening the folder onscreen, i.e an icon on my ObjectDock entitled Office that pops open a list of my Microsoft Office programs - i.e Word, Excel, Powerpoint, or one called Games that i could put all my game shortcuts on. I realize i could do something similar with tabbed docks, but there is there an animated popout available?

Thanks for any help. Wish there was a 10 day demo of Plus avaiable.

Plus can have effects when you select a shortcut, but it doesn't zoom in the Tabbed docks in regards to your first question.

Your second question, however, is a resounding yes - Plus comes with something called Flyout docks, which work just like the weather docklet currently does. You click on the main shortcut in the main dock (either a regular or a tabbed dock) and it will pop out a flyout, with as many programs as you want in it. it will then shuffle through them and you click on the one you want. It's pretty brilliant.

All in all, OD+ is one of the single best Stardock products I've purchased, and I own quite a bit. It and Deskscapes are the only two I have installed on my Vista machine (I still think Aero is pretty enough that I haven't bothered to install WindowBlinds or IconPackager) and i love it.

Also, Stacks docklet is pretty cool!
