If you are a programmer and do not know about the N.A.N.Y. Project, then you are missing something BIG!!!! DonationCoder.com holds an annual programming Competition (for lack of better terminology) each year. This year is special as there is time between now and the end of 2010 to get in on this project. Circle Dock was a N.A.N.Y. Project, what is yours??? More Information on the N.A.N.Y Page What Circle Dock Allows You to Do: Launch your programs from a circular dock. Drag and drop your files, folders, and shortcuts onto a circular dock that you can re-size. Rotate the dock with either your mouse wheel or the keyboard arrow keys. Change the image shown for the icons and change the skins (compatible with icons and skins for Rocket Dock, Object Dock, etc.) The dock appears where your mouse is by pressing a hotkey (default is F1) or your middle mouse button, other options available.

Please provide feedback, bug reports, suggestions, and code contributions at the official Circle Dock Support Forum // The Idea Behind Circle Dock The idea behind Circle Dock is that the dock should appear where your mouse is instead of you having to move your mouse to the dock like with other programs. This is accomplished by making the dock a circular or spiral shape so that it can be placed anywhere, even near the edge of the screen. The offscreen portions of the dock are easily reached by just scrolling with your mouse wheel or arrow keys. A user defined hotkey combination is used to make the dock appear and disappear. By default, this combination is CTRL-WINDOWS KEY. You can change it in the settings area of the program. If you have a mouse with extra buttons or you want to make one of your mouse buttons activate the dock, I recommend you use the program from http://www.highrez.co.uk/downloads/XMouseButtonControl.htm and use it to remap your mouse buttons. This makes it very convenient to toggle Circle Dock. The current version of Circle Dock is 0.9. It is not feature complete when compared to the full fledged docks out there, such as Rocket Dock and Object Dock, but this program was coded in under 2 weeks for a programming competition at http://www.donationcoder.com so there was not enough time to investigate every standard dock feature and code it. As the program develops, more standard dock features will be added. page revision: 180, last edited: 12 Aug 2010 18:29 Edit Tags History Files Print Site tools + Options Edit Sections Append Edit Meta Watchers Backlinks Page Source Parent Lock Page Rename Delete Help | Terms of Service | Privacy | Report a bug | Flag as objectionable Powered by Wikidot.com Unless otherwise stated, the content of this page is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 License Other interesting sites p977 Evil Hat Productions Wiki Sygnus Figment Registry Where Writers Share Their Characters & Worlds Επιμόρφωση Β' στο Ρέθυμνο Click here to edit contents of this page.
