DockFun!4.7

I am really into seeing what I can do with the dock so this software excited me but without a manual I say forget it. Author claims great simplicity but I found I had many questions and he's too busy with his own development to want to bother to help someone appreciate his software - see snippet: > On 12/28/02 7:05 AM, "John MacDonnell (Ti)" > wrote in response to my request for a manual: >> all the info you can get at >> www.dockfun.com I wrote...

Very handy and useful Dock integration for Mac OS X. I can now start getting rid of all the alias' on my desktop and gain some real estate. I recommend getting this Application utility over many other utilities, as this is high quality, the developers are always hard at work and this is just a plain useful utility for home users to professional. Great enhancement to my everyday usage. It takes a little while to get used to it, but it is DockFun!

Great job! Stable! Fast and running.

Performing solidly here on my Tigered PB17" :-).

Just downloaded and paid for this cute and useful app. I think it is very creative and intuitive. Now at the beginning there is a short movie that quickly gets you up and running. Works for me exactly as described, and makes using the dock fun, and finally useful

good piece of software. on my side, i never experienced troubles or delays when it was to contact mr john: quick replies, good efficiency, good support. the two stars and the previous comment in this page looks to me excessively negative, too much excessive.

I dont know whats wrong now!The icon of Safari still in the dock even after larges"restarts"The older versions dont do that,but in the Mac Panther 10.3.5 the Safari never leave the dock in the configuration and show thw face everytime what we do the "restart"I dont know whats wrong wiht the DockFun! now,i write for Mr.John and he never answer my e-mail.i see the older versions work very better,but now thw AliasMenu still the better thing for this.

I absolutely love DockFun! It's an excellent app!!!! Simple and easy to use. Manages all in a impressive, convenient, organized display! A must have tool!

Awesome App I bought immediately!!!

A lot of potential, but a lot of headache (for the time being)... I consider myself to be a 'power user', so on first sight DockFun lookked easy and intuitive to set up; instead, it was a chore: - Dock preferences could not be applied to all docks, despite repeated attempts to do so, and despite the "apply settings to all docks" feature. - BIG NO-NO: there is no "Save" command!!!!! - Program quit 4 times in a half hour. I think that when the (multiple) bugs, interface shortcomings and stability issues issues are worked out, DockFun! will actually BE fun to use!

excellent app!!! i have a lot of app and this is the best utilitie for the dock

Fabolous application!!!!!!! must have tool

Very solid app. Easy to set up and use. I have tried many GUI enhancements but DockFun and the awsome CodeTek Virtual desktop are the only ones that have received my money. Couldn't live without the combination

I am not an expert an computer matters,i only an ilustrator what have to chage the way to work because ALL my clients work on Photoshop,The DockFun!looks good at the first time but after a VERY short day of work the thing "delay"all the others things even the Frogslapper fell the "delay"is a good idea but dont work like the Mr. John show in the page of the software.Is just wast of time the Dock what come with thw Macintosh OSX 10.2.3 works better a lot!

I downloaded this software after reading the negative comment of "mday108" so I was waiting to get an hard App... well I gotta say that it is easy to use as push a + for adding and - for removing docks... I really think it's trivial to use... well of course you need a minute for understand but which app doesn't need a minute... I bought this app and I send to John (the developer) few mails for fixing a problem I was having with an other software not only he solved my small problem but he always replied me within 5 hours!!! where do you get this kind of support??? not even for software that cost 1000$!!! Yes DockFun! doesn't have manual but I prefer that the developer focus his work in make things easier than have an hard app for which you have to read an entire manual... plus the developer has been so nice to solve my problems as I were a person who bought 100 licences :) So Thanks John! well of course this is just my opinion... but I'm satisfy of this software very much, just try it out!
