Circle Dock / Re: Change of Licensing from Version 2 (Cancelled)
« on: August 03, 2010, 11:34 PM »
Jimminy Christmas!!!

I really do not want to be an enemy of fun here.
As much as I love being an A$$Hole, this is not one of them  :-[
I love all the folks that use and help support Circle Dock.
Please realize that many limits are being hit based on the software that is currently being used, and certain software products must be obtained in order to develop towards some of the requests that have been, and are being, made.
Want to advance Circle Dock, but apparently have hit various financial limits.
Many here at DC and Circle Dock Donations have been great and open, many donating more than they can afford. I know, I am one of these.
Know that Markham and I are not absolutely happy with moving in this direction, but we are feeling very limited by the current choices at present.
I have done some serious research into Eric's license, as I was asked if I can justify what we are doing, and do so in clear conscience.
The immediate answer is no.  :-[ ,But what alternatives exist?
That being said; I see no reason that we would not consider alternatives or modifications to what Markham has already outlined.
At this time, as far as I know, nothing is absolutely carved in stone, so Options and suggestions are advised, over criticism.
We can not ask more than the DC Community already gives, and we now all know what the problems are.
Solutions are what are needed, thoughtful and forward moving, not Complaints. I do not say this angrily at all  :-[
I understand you positions. But costs need to met and in the immediate future

Please observe the following quotes from Eric's License.

You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey, and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.

This is not derivative taken out of context, but a complete paragraph.
I have not modified this in any way. I am too lazy.
But I request that you research the license again, before jumping towards incorrect conclusions, again no insult is meant by this statement.  :-[

I am of two minds in this.
1) Protecting VIP's Legacy
2) allowing Markham to protect his intellectual rights and be able to afford teh necessary software to expand on Circle Dock's capabilities.

I do not at all wish to alienate any users, but if any one has a better solution, or licensing concept.
We will listen.

My immediate thinking would be allowing a limit on computers installed over an install limit on a single system.

Greetings audit2
Good to have you here with us at Donationcoder and Circle Docks little part
My apologies for the late response

I presume that you are using Circle Dock in a static, or fixed, location.
That being the case, you will need to activate legacy mode

So let's do this thing  ;)

Right click on Circle Dock and go to Dock Settings; Click it and wait for the settings to come up.
In the Settings window go to General> Location.
In the Lower left hand side is a check box for the legacy operations.
Check the following Box; OR: Version 0.9 Bahaviour  (See "Help")

I am fairly certain thsi will do the trick.
If not let us know and we will get it ironed out for you  :Thmbsup:

Greetings fred dred
Glad to have you here with us at Circle Dock and Donationcoder  :-*

apologies that it is not under better circumstances.  :-[

We have not been ignoring this issue, we are actually looking into it.

Markham is out until Monday, or he is supposed to be, but he has this annoying "take my laptop everywhere habit"  :P
So we may have an answer quicker.

We will get you through, apologies for the troubles

Regards
The Sarge

this may not be possible since Radian and Circle Dock use different approaches: Each of Radian's pie-slices is a Window containing six buttons whereas each of Circle Dock's Dock Items is an individual window.

You are absolutely correct and I do keep forgetting these details  :-[
