Request for AmiDock update

Some features I'd like AmiDock to have in it's next update:

1. Scalable icons. With these options
- Able to define a width and/or height for alla icons in a docky.
- Icons that scale to the size of the docky and not the other way around.

2. An option for popup text instead of icon text.
- If you hover the mouse over an icon and the icon label text isn't activated a popup opens up displaying the icon label text.

3. And the ability to define sub groups within a docky that can be individially right/center/middle justified within the docky. Alternatively a 'separator' dockie that can be used as a filler that fills up an empty space where it is put and all icons to the left are pushed toward the left docky border and the icons to the right are pushed toward the right docky border.

4. Ability to have a soft, transparent border and not just a one pixel border. (Bit like the amigans.net christmas theme top banner border)

Mouse on over effect (activatedimage).

Also,

If an App icon does not have a name underneath it, but your icons do, Let the app icon use that spare space rather than leave it blank.

And, the ability to open the directories of Hidden devices that are held in the Dock. Drop a Disk icon in AmiDock, then hide that device using Prefs/Workbench & now try & open the window. D'OH!

FuZion.

Edit: Origin already said what I said

* Allow application dockies to modify the title text

* Remember positions of application dockies

* Possibility to move application dockies into different docks

@Ikir
Agree that is a very nice feature of KDE.

ace

whats the chance of the genie efect like OSX ?

1. The possibility to "skin" the drag bar, nice little
boing ball there me wants

2. Possibility to change icons for subdockeys from the menu

uhm... nothing else???

erm...

1. been there forever... (appearence, dragbar background)

2. erm... been there forever too... (in the popup menu for a subdock)

The vital changes needed are:

Make the editor fully drag'n'drog and mousewheel compatable.

To be able to move things from one dock to another.

To be able to defing which dock the temporary (tunenet, yem etc.) dockies use.

Being able to turn on or off individual docks with a checkbox in the main list.

Yup!! More devs on AmiDock please

Ooh, just two more for now

The ability for an icon to be replaced by the apps Docky.

eg. Rather than having both an icon for TuneNet & it's interactive Docky, the Docky replaces the icon so it's only shown once.

And (This one's probably down to the application itself though), when an application is runnng, a right click on it's AmiDock icon to hold functions specific to that app.

Shows the name of a sub-dock without having to click on it.

A fix to get rid of the "drawn-thru effect" on subdocks
that are covered by other windows

Reproduce:
Place a window at a position where a subdock will open.
Now, the subdock is "Always in background" so it will be
drawn behind the window, but if one drags away the window
the part (of the window) that was covering the subdock is
"drawn-thru" onto the background of the subdock (leaving
the icons untouched)

Happens here with "Transparent Picture (color keying) and
transparency" at a transparency of 70%, with the subdock
being "Icon type", "Horizontal", "Always in background",
"Locked", "Tiny", "None" (Icon Names), "Centered" (Icons),
no Drag Bar and No Border
