Was using Dell dock and upgraded (switched to) Object Dock. Now I am re-creating all my links and shortcuts, etc but find one thing missing right away. When using a tabbed dock all that show are the icons. Any way to show both the icons AND the title of the object? id: Display Adobe icon but when hovering over the icon I get a pop-up that states Adobe Acrobat Reader. Some of my Internet Explorer links show as generic web links and who knows which is which until you ...

Hi guys. Just wanted to see if anyone out there has had bariatric surgery and if so, do you have anything you'd like to share?

Helpful tips, things to watch out for, etc.

My wife and I are gearing up for the gastric sleeve surgery. In order to get the insurance company to pay, we both had to lose 10% of our weight, as a show of commitment.

Lisa made her 10% goal today! Yay Lisa!! I weighed in today with the hospital dietitian, I have l...

3D Printing seems to have crossed a major mile stone in that a start-up, called Defense Distributed, has used a 3D printer to create a working gun. It’s still mostly a curiosity since the cost to make such a gun and that it isn’t yet very robust still keeps it firmly in the early adopter era.

So here’s what I’ve found out so far :

No matter which printer you get, the materials for it are currently over $100 a pound. To me, that makes it fairly impractical for most uses. I could imagine...

When Fences is installed on Windows 7, the Desktop (Explorer) crashes several times. Eventually Fences turns itself off.

I've updated to the most recent nVidia drivers for the 8800 GTS but with no success.

Hi, apologies if this has been asked before but I did search first.

So I've got Windowblinds 8, and in with my Object Desktop subscription I also have a bunch of Mycolors skins, like Encounter, Gloss Burgandy etc. I tried installing these today (so Windowblinds 8 and Mycolors were on the same machine) but things did not go well. Windowblinds 8 does not see the Mycolors skins as I expected it would. Worse still, the two programs seem to conflict with each other, and Windowblinds 8 has not ...

≪ Previous: activation counter reset

Normally when you right-click on your desktop and go to the view menu item you get three options for icon sizes: Large, Medium, Small. As of installing fences I no longer have those options. The options that I have available under the view menu item are: Opacity, Auto arrange icons, Align icons to grid, Lock Fences, Show desktop icons, Show desktop gadgets.

I am using version 2.10.

I have been testing a lot of Win 8 PC's lately and I always install Start8 and when I format and reinstall Windows I thought it would have known I had already activated Start8 previously, but it now says I have activated it too many times, can I have it reset?

Hi,

I love the program.

Is it possible like apple that when you double click on the top bar of a fence that it will turn into a little bar.

Or something like that.

and for instance when you hoover it will fold out.

It was just an idea from me.
