There are two longstanding bugs which I believe are known, but have never been fixed. Will these be fixed in 2.0, or perhaps even with a bug fix in 1.9?
I am running on a Lenovo ThinkPad T61p with Windows XP and all up-to-date service packs. The problems I have with ObjectDock seem to occur in two cases:
1. When I put the PC into standby mode and later resume.
2. Whenever I start or close the Windows NetMeeting application program (conf.exe).
One of two errors occur when I do these things - almost all the time:
Error 1: ObjectDock crashes. I get a window telling me it crashed and asking if I want to save the information.
Error 2: ObjectDock loses track of its location. I normally have it in auto-hide at either the right edge or bottom edge of the screen. It will move itself to the top-left of the screen, non-hidden. I have to use the right-click menu to ask it to go back to the position where it was before.
Note that in some cases the errors may happen when I switch between my office location with an external monitor and docking station and standalone operation using the ThinkPad's LCD display - and those two have different display resolutions and aspect ratios. No other programs fail when I switch, however.
Will these problems be fixed? If not, I may have to start looking for an alternative dock program - but I really like the "look and feel" of ObjectDock.
It says I am currently running Version 1.90, Build 536.
