ObjectDock - how to see current window in the tray?

April 1, 2005 3:13:55 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums
Hi,

Installed ObjectDock earlier today and fiddled around with it quite a lot.
When I first installed it, I could see what was loaded in an internet explorer window in the tray, aswell as other programs.
Now, after my messing around a bit, I just see the standard icon for a html file in the tray, aswell as - for instance mIRC - before I saw the windows in the application in the tray when moving my mouse over it and now I don't. How do I get that function back?

Hope you understand my question.

Kind regz,

Let me rephrase that;

Before I could see a mineatur of the webpage loaded in the Internet Explorer tray icon. Now I get the standard html file extension icon instead. How do I get the other one back?

ObjectDock Properties > Appearance Tweaks > "Represent minimized windows by their screenshots"

Is that what you're looking for?

That option was already set on my system

Is it that I created the entry for Internet Explorer via a shortcut to c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe?
And how to do it otwerwise?

When IE is running and you see the 'incorrect' icon in the tray, rightclick it and select 'Dock Entry Properties'. Play with the options you see there...

I noticed the same things...

Sometimes if you minimize a window from the minimize button in the application (upper right corner), the window snapshot won't appear.... however, if you click on the active applications icon in ObjectDock in the task bar section, it will minimize it to the dock, and the screenshot works fine...

for me, it just seems to be sometimes it doesn't show the thumbnail... maybe a little glitch... and if I have 2 docks, only one of them will show the thumbnail.
