Even though I have a game in fullscreen mode, it opens programs when I push 'Enter'. Very annoying. Uninstalling now and thought it was fair to let you know why.
cheers

Hi, I lost access to the sourcecode for SliderDock when my harddrive crashed so I can't make anymore updates to fix any problems.

Every time I press the ''/'' key, Sliderdock crashes.
My keyboard is a PT/BR configured for (Português -Brasil- ABNT).
The keyboard is one of those with a ''ç'' key, so I don't know if the crashing key ''/'' is the same for EN keyboards ( the ''/'' key is next to the right shift key).
I have no windows shortcuts or configured SliderDock to use this key. SliderDock is using Alt+F1 as hide/unhide shortcut and everything else is set to 'none'.
Here's the error log:
Win32NT Microsoft Windows NT 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1

I have attempted to install Sliderdock on windows 10 and each time I try to open it I get the same error listed in the thread title. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I just want to say how much I miss Sliderdock!
I have Windows 10 64-bit and get the Fatal Unhandled Error message after installing the program. Has anyone resolved this error? Is there a way to make Sliderdock work in Windows 10?
Thank you!
Cherie
Thanks so much, so I was right!! "Molecular barrier between my chair and keyboard"
Thanks again for quick reply!
This looks like it might be fun to change the GUI, I will have research on "how to". Not like I don't have enough on my plate that I WANT to do.
You ever notice with computers that you start building a list of things you want to do, and eventually you're inundated with too many tasks.
Trying to rank up in Overwatch, start streaming, get a better grasp on Sony Vegas so I can edit video for my website, and YouTube.
Completely overhaul my website. Including building a much simpler logo. Become more proficient in Photoshop and illustrator. Finish Doom 4…
Actually build a room for streaming in the basement (paint one wall green so I can clear the background.
Start remodeling my PC again
Then all the purchases for this stuff new video card, new motherboard and processor, new vid cam, second flat screen monitor, streaming computer, new mic, lighting…and more.
In the midst of it all I have to work 45 to 50 hrs. /week and use most of my pay to pay bills and mortgage. So this should all by complete by 2018 :P
Holy freaken rant…sorry.
Anyways thanks again for such a quick reply, just got out of the hospital and have some pretty nifty pain killers that would explain the novel, who does not love a legal high?
Thanks again coderOmega, your name suggests a skill I am envious of, GUI and De-compiling with an actual app is the extent of knowledge.
Would love to learn to code tried it once on my own, but PHP to me was like putting a mirror in front of a mirror, never ending, the sky was the limit.
If and when I start skinning them I will upload them here once registered
KK I am done have a great day.
this is the default behavior. The application gets hidden so to not be in the way of other applications that are opened.
To show SliderDock the default shortcut keys are ctrl+space.
The shortcut keys can be changed in the options.
You can also switch off the auto-hide function there if you prefer.
So I am new to this , usually when I run into a problem this quickly, I just scrap the app and look for a new one.
However this one is aesthetically pleasing and looks like it makes things much easier.
However every time I click on an app in Sliderlock, Sliderlock gets minimized to the notification area, (bottom right hand).
This really takes away from it's functionality if you keep having to open it, it's adding an extra step.
I am sure this is not working as intended, and quite probably a molecular barrier between my chair and keyboard.
Any help would be appreciated!!!~~

I see.
ok found another way to 'hide' the dock lol : just use win aero-flip back to desktop pane, and the dock stays under. to bring it up again, make another window other than the desktop active. the dock re-surfaces.
SliderDock isn't integrated in the explorer shell

I've tested with sliderdock's shortcut itself. I tested while it was on desktop. It doesn't work, but I don't think it's really a big issue anymore.
Regarding the single launch, the dock once in operation, does it exist within explorer shell? if so, I could try find the 'folder' if I can get it on explorer view, and alt+T, then maybe I could switch all within that 'folder' to quick launch under folder options. do u think that is possible? I still have to find the dock first.
The double click is hardrwitten into the code and there is no toggle to change it to single click.
After reading your comment I thought of using ahk to double click the SliderDock tray bar icon but I found a wall where relaunching the script would lose the tray icon position but I found an interesting script that will do what you are asking here : https://autohotkey.com/board/topic/7129-run-a-program-or-switch-to-an-already-running-instance/
I modified it slightly but basically it's a script that will launch the launcher lol.
so here is what you'll need to copy into an ahk file :
SliderDockPath = "C:\Program Files (x86)\SliderDock\SliderDock.exe"
RunOrActivate(SliderDockPath)
; ===========================================================================
; Run a program or switch to it if already running.
; Target - Program to run. E.g. Calc.exe or C:\Progs\Bobo.exe
; WinTitle - Optional title of the window to activate. Programs like
; MS Outlook might have multiple windows open (main window and email
; windows). This parm allows activating a specific window.
; ===========================================================================
RunOrActivate(Target, WinTitle = "")
{
; Get the filename without a path
SplitPath, Target, TargetNameOnly
Process, Exist, %TargetNameOnly%
;If ErrorLevel > 0
; PID = %ErrorLevel%
;Else
Run, %Target%, , , PID
; At least one app (Seapine TestTrack wouldn't always become the active
; window after using Run), so we always force a window activate.
; Activate by title if given, otherwise use PID.
If WinTitle <>
{
SetTitleMatchMode, 2
WinWait, %WinTitle%, , 3
TrayTip, , Activating Window Title "%WinTitle%" (%TargetNameOnly%)
WinActivate, %WinTitle%
}
Else
{
WinWait, ahk_pid %PID%, , 3
TrayTip, , Activating PID %PID% (%TargetNameOnly%)
WinActivate, ahk_pid %PID%
}
Exit
}
If I remember correctly, SliderDock's default behavior when launching it when it's already running is to show itself.
If that is the case this script should work for you.
I don't have access to a windows 7 computer anymore so I can't test it myself but I tried with another app and it works.
Edit : actually never mind the script. have you tried to run SliderDock's shortcut when it's already working?
It should do the same.

Hello there Dimitri,
I have found a method, but it is not a complete workaround. Basically it only works while you are working on the desktop, the moment you switch to another window, the dock will re-appear. I think what it actually does force the desktop pane forwards but I could be wrong. The shortcut can be downloaded @sevenforums, under tutorials : 26379-show-desktop-shortcut-create.html. Sry I realized I can't post a link.
It's a shortcut to replicate 'show desktop' function as in the taskbar button strip on the furthest right. this is not to be confused with shortcut to desktop 'from explorer view' (c:\users\username\desktop).
I need your help for 1 more thing at the moment. Previously you said that :-
"There isn't a way to launch an app with a single click.
The reason for this was to allow to drag the icon to reorganize them and the single click launch was causing some problem with it".
I understand what you mean, but could you show me the way to temporarily toggle this, as I am testing something, and I will be careful not to drag/re-order or add any new icons while the single click launch is in effect.

ok, still thanks very much for your help.
I think I know why.
The script does work but SliderDock doesn't receive the command because of the way it's handling the shortcuts.
Basically SliderDock interecpt keyboard keys before window receive them while ahk send command to window which redistribute them to other apps.
Because of that feature ahk and other 3rd party apps cannot interact with SliderDock's shortcuts.
In earlier versions SliderDock did use windows inputs but it was unstable and caused the application to crash so that is the reason for the current way it now works.
I guess because of this reason there is sadly no way to have a desktop shortcut control SliderDock.

hi, I have just added that line to the file. it does come up.
i'm getting "test" in a pop-up box.
so right now my file only has these exact 3 lines :-
MsgBox % "test"
Send {^Space}
Exit
i'm activating the file on desktop, but the dock does not auto-hide?
to test if ahk works at all at the beginning of the file just add the line
MsgBox % "test"
this line should show a popup when you run the script.
If it does then the problem might be somewhere else.
