Reply to Installing the new WB5.00b.002 beta doesn't work in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

I did some more poking around, last night, and discovered the wb5.log file under SDCentral\Installed. This was actually more useful to me than the install.log under the WindowsBlinds folder. These lines clued me into the files I had trouble with: Move: C:\WINDOWS\system32\Wbsys.dll 0 (Locked, replace on reboot) | 02/27/2003 02:27 Move: C:\Program Files\Stardock\Object Desktop\WindowBlinds\wbhelp.dll 0 (Locked, replace on reboot) | 09/

Installing the new WB5.00b.002 beta doesn't work in WindowBlinds WinCustomize Forums

I told Stardock Central to upgrade WindowBlinds, this evening, to the latest beta, and it told me I needed to reboot. Well, after rebooting, it told me to reboot again. And again... since the message mentions that my "registry protection software" might be causing the problem, I figured the only thing I might have that could do that is Microsoft Anti-Spyware, so I disabled that, and prevented it from starting on boot-up. WindowBlinds still keeps tellin

WISH: Snap to Grid in WindowFX WinCustomize Forums

The very first utility I load on every new machine, of mine, is a little program called "allSnap." ( Link ) I highly recommend that you get a copy of this and incorporate it's features into WindowFX. Basically, it provides a very satisfying bit of feedback to the Windows environment, by creating a little gravity around each window, so they all snap to each other when you move them arou

Using Hotspots to Bring to Front in ObjectDock WinCustomize Forums

Is there a way to configure a mouse hotspot to bring a dock to the front of the screen? I have a dock that contains nothing but my clock, calendar, battery meter, etc. I want this to be large enough to see at a glance, so I can't have it Always on Top or it will interfere with whatever application I'm currently using, so I set it to normal z-ordering. However, I'd like to be able to bring it at any time, so a mouse hotspot is the only reliab

Reply to Tile Windows positioning in Object Desktop Stardock Forums

Oh... another wish for the next release... could you add tooltips to the tiled windows with the window's titlebar caption? Sometimes the windows I have tiled are very similar in appearance, and it's difficult to know which one is which just by looking.

Tile Windows positioning in Object Desktop Stardock Forums

Whenever I minimize a new window and it gets tiled (really cool feature, by the way) they just get stacked up on top of each other... is there supposed to be a way to configure WindowFX to properly line them up in rows and/or columns? If not, I'd like to suggest that be a new feature added.

Reply to Taskbar Eats Application Tops in WindowBlinds Stardock Forums

I'd like to add my vote to fixing this issue. My primary machine is a tablet pc. Putting the taskbar at the top makes things extremely more convenient, so this problem has been a pretty big inconvenience to me. To make matters worse, it's not as easy to reposition the windows with just a stylus, when the titlebar is hidden underneath the taskbar.

Multiplicity Feature Requests in Requests WinCustomize Forums

I am pretty excited about the potential for this product! I currently use a similar product called MaxiVista, which does exactly what I need it to, but I am a long-time fan of Stardock's and would love to switch over to Multiplicity if it only had a couple new features... ...so, where's the best place to talk about Multiplicity? I haven't seen any discussion of it, anywhere, on the discussion forums.
