[quote who="anarkys" reply="6" id="2687185"]It just boggles my mind how one person (to my knowledge) is doing everything for winstep and is highly supportive of the product and I cannot get an answer to my simple question from SD.[/quote] Ok, in Stardock's defense, keep in mind Winstep is also a company smaller than Stardock, whose sole focus is Desktop Customization, and with a much smaller product portfollio. Even then, sometimes I also have trouble keeping up wi

Only top notch software gets to be featured at the front page of Cnet's Download.com. Cnet's Editors liked Winstep Xtreme so much that they decided to feature it twice: once for the v10.6 launch exclusive on July 13th, and again during the weekend of July 17th. Applications that are getting noticed with reviews and ratings are the applications that get featured at Download.com - so download the trial version of Winstep Xtreme
[quote who="k10w3" reply="46" id="2683804"] Quoting Annatar11, reply 45 That's great, but I'm pretty sure it's impossible to properly diagnose a mental disorder over the internet. I wasn't making a diagnosis, I was making a suggestion that perhaps there were reasons other than the 2 made prior to this one (bad translator and drugs) as to why this poster posts in the manner that he does.

Ah, no. Wouldn't be that useful anyway - and the Desktop CPU meter has something related, but MUCH better: it gives you a list of, say, the 1 to 4 programs using the most of the CPU at that specific time (and what percentage they are using). A single glance and you'll know what app is hogging your CPU. Same goes for the RAM meter, but in terms of memory usage. This is how I know IE sucks: top 3 slots on my system right now are Iexplore processes using 200-300 MB of RAM
[quote]Jorge, does it support multi cores?[/quote] Not sure I understand the question. All programs support multi-core CPUs, but that is an automatic thing. The OS decides which thread is assigned to which core.
[quote]I know one of the options that I like when using Stardock programs like ObjectDock Plus or DX Themes is the capability for the program to hide off screen when not in use (mouse over to that part of the desktop/screen and it comes back). Does Winstep Extrreme and Nexus have this option?[/quote] Yes, of course, goes without saying. Look, if there is one thing Winstep always *specialized* on was functionality, not just eye candy.

Thanks. And guess what has been at the front page of Cnet's Download.com all day? [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
Yay! Personally I prefer *drinking* them, though. Burps. [e digicons];P[/e]
[quote who="karmat" reply="15" id="2680630"]Jorge, is the price for an update still $19.95. My subscription was up June 14th. And if so, where in the purchase process does that option come up? Thanks! [/quote] Yep, prices remain the same. The application warns you with a pop up when your year of free updates runs out, and gives you a link to the renewal page. The Winstep Automatic Update Manager does the same thing if it detects the upgrade you are about to download is no

[quote who="WebGizmos" reply="10" id="2680540"]Hadn't thought of that Jorge...actually...didn't think it mattered since you have the scale option[/quote] Unfortunately the scale option is only for Desktop modules. [e digicons]:([/e]
Me too. Now all he needs to do is make alternate, more compact, versions of those themes for the users that are still running at 1024x768 screen resolution (the vast majority, amazingly as it may seem). ;)
Oh yes, especially that. [e digicons]:grin:[/e] Webbie, your Wraith Xtreme theme is smoking hot! [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]

[quote who="xschirm" reply="363" id="2675826"]I also have the Skype problem. I can open Skype from the Systray icon. Everything works fine, except that the mouse-event "right click" seems to be catched by ObjectDock2. I can't click any buttons in Skype. I even can't close the Skype window.[/quote] That is actually a problem with Skype itself, because their developers decided that the standard way of doing things is not good enough for them (sigh).

Download it from here . I'll try putting it back up on the Winstep web site Themes page once I have a bit more time. [e digicons]:)[/e] Also, Winstep does have its own forums, you would have been better off asking that question there - the only reason I found your post here was because of Google Alerts. [e digicons];P[/e]
I need to start getting a bit more active in this (and other) forums. Most people don't realize how much functionality is crammed into Winstep applications - that above is only scratching the surface. It kills me every time I see someone requesting an ObjectDock feature which has been part of Nexus/Winstep Xtreme for years, and not beeing able to say 'Hey, Nexus does that already'. Thing is, Stardock doesn't interfere with my threads, I don't interfere with theirs. But nothing
Great how you can have an infinite number of nested sub-docks, no? [e digicons]|-)[/e] Don't forget you also have the Shelf (a feature of both Winstep Xtreme and Nexus Ultimate ), which is also a great way to categorize programs: Unlike most tabbed docks out there whi
Are you running Winstep Xtreme 9.5 or 10.4? Reason I'm asking is because the UI was completely redone in 10.4 and the way you do things is different. If you're still running 9.5, you really, really should upgrade to 10.4 (in beta mainly because the documentation is still being updated).
My pleasure, and thanks for your suggestions. [e digicons]|-)[/e]
And w hy would that be? Did I say something wrong or that wasn't 100% true? Stardock didn't force anybody to pay for the beta - smart move, as I said. Anyway, you are right that we shouldn't discuss this here, but only because this is a Winstep Nexus thread, not a ObjectDock thread. :)
[quote who="natas2" reply="22" id="2626321"]I've put in my money and my time with this dock, and I'd hate to jump ship because of time[/quote] Yes, it was a very inteligent decision, from a business point-of-view, to make users pay for the very first OD 2.0 beta based only on a handful of screenshots. Once their money has been invested users are commited and, essentially, have no choice but to wait for the final release - however long it takes. Smart. [e digicons]|
