Hey everyone.

Well, I made this blog to talk about RocketDock, I have known this program since I had my last computer, and well today I decided to give it a shot again. And I was wondering if anybody else uses and what kind nfo config do you use.

For those who don't know what RocketDock is, here's a little info on what it can do, and a link to their website (where you also can check out a video they made for preview)

RocketDock is a smoothly animated, alpha blended application launcher. It provides a nice clean interface to drop shortcuts on for easy access and organization. With each item completely customizable there is no end to what you can add and launch from the dock.

Now with added Taskbar support your minimized windows can appear as icons on the dock. This allows for better productivity and accessibility.

Features:
  • Minimize windows to the dock
  • Real-time window previews in Vista
  • Running application indicators
  • Simple drag-n-drop interface
  • Multi-monitor support
  • Supports alpha-blended PNG and ICO icons
  • Icons zoom and transition smoothly
  • Auto-hide and Popup on mouse over
  • Positioning and layering options
  • Fully customizable
  • Completely Portable
  • ObjectDock Docklet support
  • Compatible with MobyDock, ObjectDock, RK Launcher, and Y'z Dock skins
  • Runs great on slower computers
  • Unicode compliant
  • Supports many languages and can easily be translated
  • A friendly user base
  • And best of all... its FREE!!!



You can checkout RocketDock's website in Here

I used it and ObjectDock for a while, but gave up on it because RocketDock (and the free ver of ObjectDock) did not support system-tray. Which basically means I still have to have Windows task-bar to see the system tray. I'd use the full version of ObjectDock if it were free.

edit: I had it configged like the Apple OSX dock

I'd rather have icons. Using that makes me feel like a macfag, not that there's anything wrong with being a macfag....

EDIT: I have it installed, but I hardly use it.

I used objectdock with Litestep and switch to rocketdock with Litestep because it worked better. Here are my own personal beefs with them though:

ObjectDock (free version): Goes invisible when I click on desktop due to a litestep desktop applet covering it. Thats very frustrating as I gotta do a little right click left click dance to get it to show up again and it makes it slower to open/close/switch around applications sometimes.
RocketDock: Sometimes shows up in games so I can't have it as 'always on top' but if I don't then names and icons get cut off by open programs. If always on top is on it shows up when watching videos on fullscreen also.

I also stole some of objectdocks icons and used them in rocketdock.
