One of the most asked about applications is ObjectDock.  Specifically, people have been wanting to know about ObjectDock 2.0.  Some have speculated that we have simply given up on ObjectDock, and that is simply not so.  It is in development, but since it is early there is no time estimate about release, nor about upgrading.

First off, what is ObjectDock?

Objectdock is a smoothly-animated, customizable 'shelf' on which you can place shortcuts, docklets, system tray icons, and view running applications. The program is available in two versions: Plus and Standard. The Plus version offers multiple docks, tabbed docks, and a unique feature called flyout menus. The free version, while still demonstrating the capabilities of the 'zoomer' docks, limits you to only one dock. You can customize ObjectDock to be anything from a taskbar replacement to a fancy docklet-filled information center.

 

ObjectDock is certainly one of the most popular desktop applications around, and a lot of work is going into the new version.  Maybe in another week or so, a video might be in order. 

Let me make note, this is an early screenshot and is still subject to changes in the final version.

With that being said…..

I know precisely what Zubaz means.  My own company's software is extraordinarily complex and difficult to configure, but is very powerful.  We come across very few business requirements we can't configure.  That said, oftimes I wish we had an "Easy" button, or at least a "Basic" and "Advanced" view of some screens.  Some customers' requirements just aren't that complex, and it'd be nice to present a simpler interface for them, while having an optional advanced interface for everyone else.

quite an erronous statement seeing that apple DIDN'T invent the dock. apple don't invent things they just take things, tweak them then claim them as their own.

Yet the Apple dock is perfection...

No, as it is missing Tabs.

I'm disappointed to see there is still no way to turn off/on a particular dock tab, rather than simply having to delete it.  Sometimes I just want to see a few tabs, rather than all of them.  A tab on/off feature would really prove beneficial.

Will there be a beta in 2010 or is the project just a tease?

If peoples wish lists for OD are still being considered, I would appreciate...

1) an option to make the icons slightly transparent

2) an option to make tabbed docks slightly transparent

3) to be able to move a dock closer to the screen's edge

4) be able to open a different saved dock without closing one that's already open

I would hope there would be a beta and a release version in 2010, but I am not involved in ObjectDock development so I cannot promise anything.

Maybe someone could urge the one who is involved in ObjectDock development to give us an update...
