Docking Software

[Azz]

Hi all,

My test PC has loads of icons on the desktop for the various tasks it does, what I am looking for is someway of organising them.

I have just installed RocketDock which looks very good, but it doesn't organise things very well i.e a section for office, data recovery etc.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what would organise or seperate the different programs?

Thanks,

Aaron

Yep, how about stacks for Rocket dock.



Just create a new stack for each set of apps.

Is this not what you need?

Is it more effective to wade through all that instead of the start menu?

It is for me. ( used to using a dock in OS X anyway ) and it makes for a much cleaner looking desktop. The shortcuts I use most often are right there for me. Its all about what you like really. If you wanna run every program from the 'run' command I guess that would be fine too. Plus, for me I know exactly where everything is so I can actually get to my programs faster with this setup than going to the start menu, then scrolling down through all the programs until I find the right folder then over then click.

Could you post a screenshot so I can see what you have?

you can open the start menu and type the first letter and and it brings the program up for you no need to wade

if you know where you programs are you can find them in the start menu in a jiffy.
