SliderDock R14 released
« on: February 12, 2010, 02:35 PM »
I'm looking for beta tester for the latest version of SliderDock.
the beta is a zip file, and SliderDock will be in portable mode by default.
So no installation and it will work and save within it's own folder.(with the exception of the option "Load SliderDock at startup" which IF checked will write a line in the registry, but once unchecked will remove this line).


edit : the beta has ended now. If you wish to know more about this software or the new version please visit the website : http://sliderdock.wikidot.com/

Hi CO, glad to have you posting.

One of the best things about DC is when software users and authors can discuss ides and test software and discuss ways to improve it.

I think it would help to give people a link to the web page where they can learn about the program, not just a download link!

The web page is: http://sliderdock.wikidot.com/

The web page has videos as well as screenshots, here's one to get an idea:

The program is similar to Circle Dock (a project written by other DC members) and Ciano Dock, also discussed on the forums.  Perhaps DC needs to have a special area devoted to discussion of RDP, aka Round Dock Phenomena :)

Let's demonstrate the DC spirit and give some feedback to the author to help him improve it!

Round Dock Phenomena

 ;D a new kind of very contagious sickness passing through the virtual world  ;D

Thanks for the forum feedback, I guess you are right people do need more info before downloading it.
I'm always open for feedback, that's one of the reason I joined this forum.

I have officially released SliderDock's newest version.
The R14 of this dock bring more support for drag and drop of virtual folder.
Now Most control panel icons are working correctly.
The rotation with the keyboard shortcuts and the overall performance have now been improved too .
There is a new tab called "ShaderEffect" which add effects such as making the icons black and white when the mouse enter an icon.
And there's a new option which add different event ability when SliderDock gets unhidden.

I also add skins for the icons background.

The full list of change can be found here : http://sliderdock.wikidot.com/change-log

You can find information about this application and the download link on the main website :
