WBDock: DockBar with more Skin comfortable and easy to install, in the link you will also find WBDock a native version for Amiga 1.x systems.

WBDock v1.26 And WBDock2 v2.560 : Download



To use a true skin for the funny style rather than a tiled pattern you need all these prereqisites:
- True color screen mode (15 bits per pixel or more)
- Texture file with transparency (transparent color, mask plane or alpha channel)
- Pngalpha.library when using a PNG file as texture
- Width of texture must be divisibly by 3
- Platter height set to "use texture height"

WBDock2 v2.430 update 13-Sep-2021:
- Fixed deadlock when dragging Workbench icons over the dock

WBDock2 v2.4325 update 27-Aug-2021:
- The MagicWB style can now have skinned edges
- Fixed starting project icons on WB V44+ with DOpus5 as WB replacement
- Preview of the dock app SDK included (unfinished

Very nice. I like that 1.3 has some love too.

@AMIGASYSTEM: sorry, I didn't reply to your PM yet. You can now change the icon size and use a custom-shaped platter :)

Thanks Thomas, I'll try now!

EDIT:

I can't find the item to resize the icons

See the hints on the download web page.

Perfect Thomas, with the translation I didn't understand that you had to add those parameters in the Tooltype, thanks for your help.

It would be nice to be able to remove the text under icons in AmiDock Style and ToolManager, and always on ToolManager the possibility to insert a skin

I'm having a hard time understand how to install it. Which files and drawers goes where?

What OS are you using? You can copy and run from the folder wherever you want.

Look at the vido, I run the unpacked folder on the fly on a WB 3.0

Ah, I see. I use 3.1.4.1 with BestWB, and on BestWB it seems like WBDock is in Tools/Commodoties, but I'm not sure where the other files are located, and then moved into WBStartup if you want to autostart it.

Hi, just go to prefs and double click on wbstartupprefs with that program enable wbdock. Reboot and that is it.

Nice, how do I remove some of the existing programs from the dock?

Activate the dock window, right-click on the icon and select remove :)

Thank you Thomas for answering my request, everything works well also on ArosOne 68k. Is it planned to start the text also on "MagicWB Style" ?

The news Updated to version 2.255

Excellent thanks !! But why not on Aminet ?

The Apps including WBDock are also nice

I'm impressed enough to have replaced AmiDock with WBDock2. This is the MWB configuration. The "dockies" are very nice. Here, showing the dock clock. I really like the way larger icons fill the space. It (very sort of) reminds me of the dock in Coffin OS.

Thomas - I have a bug report to file regarding the CPU usage on WBDock vs. AmiDock which I had to switch back to. Can I send it to you here or on your page? I didn't want to file it here in public. Great app but 2.255 is causing some unwanted behaviors in OS 3.9. Thanks!

I with v2.255 only had some problems on AROS 68k, the icons are not always clickable but this only on "MagicWB Style".

On OS 3.9 RTG AfA OS no pronlem found !

I'll check the CPU usage on the other styles. Thanks for the heads-up.

Unfortunately on my Bench, WBDock2 runs hot regardless of style employed. I've gone back to AmiDock in the interim. I have no doubt the issue will be resolved.
