Circle Dock v0.9.2.6 Refresh
« on: October 10, 2009, 11:46 PM »
I have recompiled Circle Dock with settings that should allow it to run on 64-bit as well as 32-bit operating systems. I am unable to test the 64-bit setting as I don't have a 64-bit OS.

There are no other changes, so the version number remains the same.

Hi, Markaham.
I install win7 64 bit and I found some bug in CD:
1 - Center button -> "Show start menu when clicked" show the last menu you use (start menu or Jump Lists). An othe bug, when the center icon is larger then 100px when you pass with mouse from center to menu it disappear.
2 - New shortcut problem: some link mades an error, maybe parsing error. I found this problem in link with args so I solve moving exe and adding manually the args in item setting. A strange behavior moving link to CD adds all the icon in link shortcut, very usefull if you want.

I find an hidden function. If you want to order icon you can create dock folder moving icon in it and then moving icon to center in order you want. Markham can you add a frame to item setting with item list to order icon?
An other upgrade: can you make an add option to add all the icon in one folder? Or better somthing similar to KKmenu folder creation?
Thanks.
p.s.

1 - Center button -> "Show start menu when clicked" show the last menu you use (start menu or Jump Lists).

That's a side-effect, I'm afraid. The Start Menu handler has been modified for the next release by the addition of an additional option. That change may interest you.

An othe bug, when the center icon is larger then 100px when you pass with mouse from center to menu it disappear.

I am unable to replicate this at the current time. I've tried making the Centre Button size considerably greater than 100 pixels and everything functions as normal.

2 - New shortcut problem: some link mades an error, maybe parsing error. I found this problem in link with args so I solve moving exe and adding manually the args in item setting. A strange behavior moving link to CD adds all the icon in link shortcut, very usefull if you want.

Shortcut handling has been fixed in the next release.

Markham can you add a frame to item setting with item list to order icon?

I will look into this.

An other upgrade: can you make an add option to add all the icon in one folder? Or better somthing similar to KKmenu folder creation?

It's unlikely we will handle such an enhancement natively but may do so by using Docklets. Support for RocketDock/ObjectDock Docklets is planned.

I research for the menu disappear problem so I found the problem, I use a png icon with strange shape and many transparent areas and when I enlarge the icon the trasparent area became greater. The problem affets the trasparent area and if you use an icon similar to char "V" the problem became greater. Can you change the event? Before disappearing you must enter menu area and only when you exit the menu disappear.
Another thing, in CD settings all the label have the event to open the relative menu eccept the new menu "item setting" and "toggle bottom".
I translate your CD verison in Italian but some new things there aren't in language file, can you add them in next release?
Thanks
