questions about fly-out menus in OD2.0....and a little else

from Stardock Forums

I haven't used OD 1.x in a couple years after growing bored with all the faux-OSx themes that were so prevlant then, but got interested by rge OD2.0 beta. which runs amazingly well on Win7Pro x64! I have mixed feelins on thew settings UI as it feels very preliminary and underpowered. Hope that gets better. Am also hoping for some 64-bit optimized code for OD2 an the rest of ODN.

My main quesion is about creating fly-out menus in OD2. It appears to only be possible with folder with 80 items+? Wow, quite a limiting change from ODv1.x. Will it be made available smaller folders as we go along. My GF is state office administrator, and when whe works at home, she has several busines suites and program groupings that she uses, so I used to mmake a "work" dock with several flyoy-out, ranging from 4 to 20 icos, and this is no longer an option.

:(

 

Thanks for a great set of apps. I've been a subscriber sin Windowblinds 1.x and this is some ofthe best bank for my even today! :)

Interesting! I'm not able to find how to add a flyout menu at all - would you care to tell how you found it?

I'm also running Win7Prox64 and OD2.0 is brilliant so far on this platform. I'm only running one tabbed dock, but I tried the systray and 'running icons' with start menu docklet (all on separate zoomer docks) with no problems (only for an hour or so though).

Note this was a new install on a clean system - no previous versions of OD had been installed.
