What's new

v1.56 [Feb 9, 2010]
Added an option to prevent the mouse-click that toggles the Dock's visibility from being passed-on to other applications. This prevents ugly side-effects. The Toggle Button can display the mouse's status and the name of the application under the mouse pointer. Added options to the actions for a left-click on the top level Centre Button.
Repaired the bug that failed to load the "About" text correctly for languages other than English. (For English there was no problem). Change the "Loading Settings" graphic to one provided by "Archon of Fate" - for which, many thanks!. New object delete animation included ("Laser"). Added a new German translation by Eric Hoffman: "German (Hoffman)" - for which, many thanks!
Added alternative translations for Hungarian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Romanian, Slovak, Slovenian and Turkish.
Fixed a problem with language detection. Tuned the "ellipse" routines to make it easier to configure. I've also added a new routine to calculate dock item positions using different formula: you can test this by selecting "Ellipse 2" as a Dock Shape. "Ellipse 1" uses the pre-existing calculations. Dock Item Labels can now contain more than one line of text. Press Ctrl Enter in the text entry box to start a new line. Circle Dock requires to restart itself if either the Z-Order or UI Language settings are changed in the main configuration dialog. This happens automatically when the Settings dialog is closed.
Drag-and-Drop operations for Dock Items have been enhanced. Added the ability toggle the display of Desktop Icons and, for Windows Vista and Windows 7, the Sidebar gadgets. The wrong colour appeared for "Add" sub-menu for the Centre Button and Background context menus; this has been fixed. Modified the Help Browser to select downloading new versions by Operating System. Choices are "Auto-Detect", "32-bit" and "64-bit". A check-mark appears next to the correct download for your OS and will be the version downloaded if "Auto-Detect" is selected.
