- Sorry Neobond but I believe fdiaz2day actually posted the news first here
It works even better that occasional "on top" bug was driving me nutz.

- When will Y'z dock support task bar functionality of minimization of windows?

- I have heard that yamaguchi is not going to implement a "taskbar" to Y'z dock because the real dock on OS X doesn't have a "taskbar." He is trying to keep make the dock as close to the OS X dock as possible. He may change his mind, though.

- The real dock has a taskbar. If you launch an app, it shows up in the dock in OS X. If you minimize it, it goes into the dock. ObjectDock *sorta* does this(ish) but not the same way Apple does.

- I agree! At least just restore the window (or bring to front) of whatever app you click on (if it is already open). Like Mozilla Firebird, if I want to use YZ's Dock to bring focus back to my window, but whenever I click on the icon, it just runs the executable. For some apps this is ok, but it would be nice to handle the apps that don't do the right thing.
All I'm asking is for it to do every single thing and still be free!!!!!!!
History Ver.0.8.2 : 03-Jun-2003
New features- The default icon of each Docklets now display in the 'Add Docklet' dialog.
- The option to enable or disable multi-monitor support has been added.
- The bug of the folder menu when the "Add sub menu to shortcut of folder" is ON has been fixed.
- Fixed the bug when the dock sometimes raises to the top.
- The multi-monitor support bug was fixed.
- Fixed some minor bugs.
To the Docklet developer:
Please include an icon resource to your Docklet.
If there is no icon resource added, the DLL icon from Windows will be displayed.
I do not permit reusing the icons of the Clock, CPUMonitor, and RecycleBin which are contained in original Y'z Dock.
Bug fixes
In case the problem is not corrected in certain cases, please use the feature that has been added to disable multi-monitor support.
During first stage of V5 beta, we will be concentrating on two major issues:
WU Web Site beta testing - including gross and detailed site functionality, site UI, and site text
- WU content Beta testing - all content delivered through the WU site (with the exception of Security Updates, there is another channel for those) will have a specific beta release/test period. This includes driver update content.
- After the initial beta period, the WU V5beta program will continue to be involved in Beta update testing of software and driver content prior to their RTW ('going live') on the v5 site.
- Platform - current plans for V5 Beta are that all beta testers will require a platform of windows 2000 SP2 and later, for a testing platform.
- No one in either WU Beta or Office Beta groups have been enrolled in the V5 beta program, yet.
Neowin Note: This is probably the reason for the previous questionnaire on betaplace asking "Which Operating systems do you want to see on Windows Update" so if you haven't completed the questionnaire yet now might be a good time to do so.
