Hi,

Newbie here. I've know about Stardock for years but am just getting around to trying some of the applications, and I'm experiencing some frustration.

Is anyone successfully using ObjectDock with Windows 8 or 8.1? It seems that it was designed for earlier releases, and I'm wondering if it's worth the effort. If anyone is using and liking it with Win8, I'd very much appreciate knowing just how you are using it.

One of the settings lets me hide the Windows taskbar. I like the idea because any icons on the taskbar just add confusion with ObjectDock open above. However, if I do hide the taskbar, I lose the notification area/system tray, which gives me a lot of necessary information and functionality such as the Microsoft IME. I know some of the information in the system tray is available through ObjectDock plugins, but not all of it.

Would it work better to move ObjectDock to the top or side of the screen?

Any suggestions would be very much appreciated....

Thanks!
