This happens with OS 3.1, the icon library of the dear and good Peter on OS3.1 in addition to the command "C:Loadmodule LIBS:icon.library" needs the command "RemLib >NIL: icon.library" to be added to the user startup.
Tested DockBot also on RTG systems (version Aminet), it also works well on AFA-OS. In my opinion something is missing to be perfect: - Function to move the Doc by hand where you want to - Automatic resize (icons of different sizes do not look good) - Ability to drag new apps onto the Doc - Possibility of adding a background to the Doc - Show Label It doesn't seem to work ! - As mentioned above, replace path System: a SYS: or leave scripts empty Last edited by AMIGASYSTEM; 07 September 2019 at 22:44. |

Loadmodule is the proper way to replace a ROM module, but it needs a reboot. RemLib removes the library from the resident list, so that it will be loaded from disk. It works on the fly but is a hack. Running both is stupid because it allocates the memory twice and needs an unnecessary reboot. |

Excuse me thomas, forgot to say that RemLib was necessary for RTG systems using the AfA-OS extension.
icon.library by Peter to work on systems like Amikit, AmikitX, AmikiXE, AfA-OS, AIAB AfA-OS and AfA-WB also needs the command "RemLib >NIL: icon.library" otherwise the system uses the Icon_lib.exe |

"Show labels" works for me, it toggles to tooltip string on the launch icons.

Thanks for the suggestions!
Yeah, I'm thinking about making it modal so you could "unlock" the Dock and then drag it around by the handle. Then lock it again to use it. Quote:
I'm also thinking of making the icon borders optional which I think would look better with glowicons or newicons. If I go with the "unlock" mode mentioned above, you should be able to drop icons onto the dock, drag them off it to remove them and also shuffle them around. It would be possible, as the dock clears the window content before drawing a gadget. As hth313 mentioned, that option toggles tooltips displayed when you hover the mouse pointer over the window. |

Some of you may have seen this post already on Amigalove.com, but it is rather interesting and possibly another way to tackle a dock app.

Thanks to you, i don't know if I can't see it, but I don't see the Tab to add an application on the menu, if I drag the application a GUI opens but the path is not added and the icon see my video.
As asked in the past would be interesting a background maybe in transparency as for "AmiStart" where the color matches the background see my video. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1_L...HRolR7ICfxFTiD |

Ok thanks again, on AROS 68k I found only a small problem on Gadgets "Eyes", you can see only a black box
About Gadgets "DockMem" on RTG screens I found an inconsistency on consumption between the two types of Ram! watch my 2 screenshots Last edited by AMIGASYSTEM; 10 February 2020 at 18:42. |

Maybe I don't know how to interpret values, that's what Avail gives me, see screenshot. Last edited by AMIGASYSTEM; 07 April 2020 at 20:35. |

@bwldrbst
I tested the new version 1.9 greatly improved, the only flaw is that the background does not appear, if you approach the Doc icons with the mouse the background appears fragmented ! this happens with all OS tested Last edited by AMIGASYSTEM; 15 October 2020 at 15:21. |

Yeah, there's definitely something wrong with the rendering. I'll look into it.
I was hoping to take a break from DockBot after this release. A memory corrupting almost drove me mad over the last few weeks but now I want to fix this issue! |
