This is the worst piece of software that I've used in a long time. It de-centered my dock and I had to grab Tinker Tool to fix the mess it made. DON'T DOWNLOAD THIS.
Gui was screwy.
Drop down menus didn't work. I also had the dock pin left or right, even though the button said center....too much to describe of how NOT WORKING this app is.
You will have to manually fix your system sounds and poof etc... if you use it to modify.
Crash after crash.
Suggestion...
rm ./xdock.app
After I deleted this bit of software, it left my dock on the side of the screen, irreversibly. Now i am stuck with a dock on the side of the screen, all because of this useless piece of software.
XDock changes the language for menu in the dock. Luckily someone was kind enough to review his comment regarding this matter earlier. However, It still takes great deal of trouble to revert it back to English. Users should be notified of this before the installation.
For sure, I am going to remove the copy of XDock from my hardisk.
xDock changed my dock menus into Italian. If it does it to you to, dig through the xDock.app file to find a replacement EnglishDockMenus.plist file and copy it manually to /System/Library/CoreServices/Dock.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/DockMenus.plist.
Needless to say, I'm not using xDock anymore.
Attempted to contact developer but their feedback form doesn't work. Simply put, I downloaded this version to sample and it says I need 10.2.6 installed, then quits. I have 10.2.6 installed.
re: v1.5
A cool helpful app gets even more cool and helpful. Nice job and you can't beat the price...this is a MUST have for any OS X Dock user out there. Can't wait to see what comes next from this developer.
