At long last, ObjectBar 2.0 is available now on Stardock.com . This upgrade is free to existing customers.

ObjectBar is a program that can replace or extend the Windows taskbar. It provides the functionality of the Start bar while adding a vast array of new features and benefits. Because it is so flexible and skinnable, it can be made to look like any sort of toolbar, menu, dock, etc. found on any OS, or it can be used to create something entirely new, giving you a level of personalization on the Windows desktop interface.

This new version comes with several different looks to choose from, and each one can be personalized based on your needs.

This versatile and useful program is only $19.95, or can be purchased as part of the Object Desktop Suite of desktop customization programs for only $49.95.

Buy now!

Daiwa: I honestly don't know. The very small amount of testing we have done with it on that platform suggests that it's the widgets that are causing the immediate problem, but there may be other issues that lie beyond that - as 2k spans a wide install period time, there are a variety of components that may or may not be installed that OB could require, and which come as standard on XP.

Right at this particular moment the lead OB programmer is off at a 4-day event, but I will ask him if he can spare some time unofficially to look at it when he comes back. He also does ObjectDock, so he may have updates for that scheduled, but we'll see . . .

Does anyone know whether or not the wallpaper in the minimal.jpg-screenshot is available for download? It has something amazing for me.

Thanks,

I'm sorry, I had hope but OB 2 is still a steaming pile of CRAP!

You ****STILL**** can't re-order items in a folder bar (example Quick Lauch)! You could do that since before v1.5. It also seems as though you cannot choose to not disply the bar caption. What gives? I'll ask for the tenth time: Why in the hell would you remove functionality!!!!????

Throughout the dev process I've suggested until I'm blue in the face both on these forums and on the newsgroups.

Sadly it's back to 1.60 for me.

Wow this is really great news...can't wait to play.

One thing I didn't notice in the screen shots is transparency/translucency. Can OB 2 to per pixel alpha blending?
