thanks, I'm to block double click on next version that causes all kind of strange behavior and some other fixes as well and thanks for the input ;)

Testing a bit the new version of 32SE I noticed that the QDock used there is a lot more responsive than the 1.51 version tried this morning. I noticed it is a different version of QDock used in 32SE. Just as an observation of the issue I was telling you about in the morning.

Hello again

Just tried the 1.53 version of QDock. The Drop on icon feature doesn't work and the responsiveness of the dock has gotten a lot worse and it is almost unsuable. Clicks don't register at all or when they do, the app opens a lot later. Same app mix ups like before where you click one app, it doesn't open and then another app opens (without clicking) depending on where your mouse is.

Thanks for the input!

Hello again. Hope you are well. I have been trying the new QDock version 1.63. I can confirm that it is again usable.

Drop on icon feature works except for one of my apps which I am looking into it to see why. My app is a de archiving app which executes a bat file (script) in S:. I have added it in the Drop on app list but it doesn’t do anything when dropping an archive over it. I have called it XAD->RAM and wrote that exact name in the list. My app works fine in WBDock2. Also in UNpacker when dropping an archive on it, it doesn’t show an output window to know what is doing. If you just click the unpacker app and de archive a file then it shows. 

It seems that there are no more lock ups and clicks register normally.

One remark is that when you click on an icon to open an app you should not move away from it immediately because the app usually doesn’t open. You should leave the mouse on that app icon you try to open for like a second and then it opens fine no problem.

Also changing Dock style with (X) it can mess up the position and it usually disappears from screen and you need to change the coordinates manually in prefs file to see the dock again. 

That is all for now. Great effort, we are getting there 

Thanks for the input

Hello there. Hope you are well.

Just tried QDock 1.67 and I have to say that the improvements are great. Positioning works fine now by just using the asterisk and if you reboot, it re appears exactly where you had it. Responsiveness has also been greatly improved!!! Well done. Drop on icon feature works fine (except my app). 

One small thing regarding positioning. When I position let's say the dock to be in the middle of the lower part of the screen and I add or remove apps on there, the icons are added but the central positioning of the dock is lost and you have to repositioning it with the asterisk. Would be nice to be able for the dock to keep it's position and add the apps centering it's position automatically.

Anyhow the dock works fine now and it is a pleasure to use it. Well done again 

Thanks, I've been thinking on expanding position with center when dock is not in full width/height. You can try using a wrapper for your app,  in 32se AmigaOSse/menuicons/Autorun        look how i did it... ;) hope you get it working ;)

Next version will fix such as UNPacker output, I have also added script and Arexx support

Just tried the 1.71 version and those 2 last  features you added made it the perfect dock for me!!! All features work fine including the unpacker output and also the script and ARexx support. My extraction tool now works fine!!! Well done and thank you 

That's nice and thanks!
