Great work!

Bug: when I right click the menu it appear, but disappear immediately, I have to click several time before I can play with it

[Cariad]

I can't get the menu to show at all. The only thing that works is starting the player, and Shift+right clicking when it is started to change docklet properties.

[shaohao]

New version is avaliabel, NOW :)

[Cariad]

Thanks, not it works perfectly.
Great docklet.

However, there is one function I'd like to have; the ability to *not* show some text when I mouse-over the docklet (Like Quintessential Player or the song name).
I've removed the text from all my other icons, and would like to be able to do the same with this one.

Thank again!

Work great now!

They are little application launchers that sit at the bottom (or any side) of the screen. If you've ever used Mac OSX, it's a copy of the dock on there. ;)

Looks a bit CPU intensive. I have found an alternative soln long ago by placing the start menu on the left side of the screen and fill it with quick start icons (i have 27 there right now :)). I open any other applications using hotkeys.

It was for me. That's why I got rid of it. :D

OK. Stardock I'm familiar with, guessI haven't checked their site for a while. Thanks.

I post here because it's yz'dock related and I can't figure how I can select QMP path... the docklet let me choose only an executable called qcdplayer.exe....

Is there any way to go through all of this??

thanks

'Cause Y'z Dock had stopped development for a long time. I'll make no update for this docklet:(

to rodgerSan:
Try these steps:
Stop Y'z Dock or unload this docklet from Y'z Dock.
Open the "QCD.ini" file with notepad under the docklet folder.
Modify the key "Path=" to your QMP path.
Start Y'z Dock and load this docklet.

Unfortunately no but I always find it smoother and faster than objectdock.

Thanks a lot it works great!! :) :) :)

Sorry for warming-up this old thread, but would it be possible to make a RocketDock (http://www.punksoftware.com/) version of your cool plugin as well ??
And BTW - does anybody of you know a cool dock-icon for Irfanview ?? The ones at Wincustomize are all s**t

[vaya_2005]

It works with shaohao's QMP objectdock version of the docklet (http://www.quinnware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4552) (since RocketDock only this kind of docklet supports).
I, myself, use RKLauncher for the more mac-ish look and feel and the last time I heard about RocketDock they were saying that will never support docklets. Now I'm just playing with it and works ok! I still prefer RKLauncher (true love!), but I like the direction of RocketDock development.

And about that irfanview icon u could search more, but maybe this (http://search.deviantart.com/searchcraft/?cmd=1&offset=0&search=irfanview) aren't that bad!

Hmm, couldn't get it to work for rocketdock :cry:
Could you give a precise description of how to install this ?

[vaya_2005]

I can't explain better than this (http://forums.punksoftware.com/index.php?topic=5.0), but if u still have problems tell me about it!

[idefiXX]

Jep, that worked ! Thanks ! Reputation received :)
