RTZ Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Circle Dock License: Open Source File Size: 3111 KB Operating Systems: Windows XP, Windows Vista Requirements: Net Framework 3.5 HomePage: http://circledock.wikidot.com/start What Circle Dock Allows You to Do: Drag and drop your files, folders, and shortcuts onto a circular or spiral dock. 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.) Ability to run the program from a portable USB memory stick and have the links in the dock point to the documents on the USB memory stick. Ability to synchronize the links on the dock with the files, folders, and shortcuts on your desktop or other folders in real-time. The dock appears where your mouse is by pressing a hotkey. Works on computers with multiple monitors. 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, It is recommended that 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
