Tab Names Disappear

Evil Mouseover

February 21, 2005 10:16 PM from

I am coming to the end of my first day using the full verion of ObjectDock, and I am down to my last question.

I find that if I use the "Show on Mouseover" option for the entry labels under the "Size and Appearance" option,it removes the name from the tab.

To get the name of the tab back, I need to select "Show Below Each Entry". However, as I have mentioned before, I find the text/font of the entry names to be difficult to read, and there seems to be no way to alter that font in the "Dock Entry Properties" menu.

So the question becomes: is there a way to select the "Mouseover" option, and still show the tab name?

Thanks again for any response.

Haven't heard of this one.... are you using the latest version 1.11.518u?

btw..... you can set the Entry Label Font in General setting > Advanced Options.

According to my little icon, I am using version 1.1.510u PLus Build 510u
Assuming you are correct and the latest is 1.11.518u my first question is how do I downloaad the updated version, since there does not appear to be an "Update" option anywhere in the menus -
My second question is - I bought this from Stardock yesterday - why are they downloading an outdated version to new purchasers?
Finally, the Entry Label Font does not change the font under the icons in a tab which appears when you have selected the "Show Names" option. Maybe the ability to edit this font should be part of an upcoming version of OD - as should an ability to change the color of this font and/or the Entry Label Font ---

1.11.518u was released yesterday, possibly after you downloaded the version you have. You can go here https://www.stardock.com/support.asp enter your email address and receive a link to the new version. Or you can use Stardock Central to keep up with new, and beta releases. (It's in the Misc section)

I see what you mean about the fonts not changing if you have it set to Show below each entry. I'm sure this will be addressed in a future update.
