eevoo Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 Is there any way to stop the dock from stealing focus and minimizing my gamesI run to use a healing potion in diablo 2, minimize, maximize back in, necro is dead and i make a sad face Just close it before you run your game. There are also batch files you can get that will automaticly close it. Ahhh found it... From DTz Originally posted by KaosAD --- Closing the dock and launching a game and restarting the dock: You could simply do this by assigning the shortcut to a .bat file. Make a text file with the following in it taskkill /F /IM YzDock.exe start /wait C:\Games\UT2003\System\UT2003.exe start C:\Apps\YzDock\YzDock.exe exit Then save the file and change the extentsion to .bat. Do this for each game. It will even work from the dock This will close the dock, start the game, then when you exit the game it will start the dock and close the prompt window.

topher1078 Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 I've been using this batch file trick for a while and it works very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaroniekins Posted March 11, 2004 Author Share Posted March 11, 2004 *dances* Thanks!! I was wonderin, is there any difference between Y'z and Stardocks Dock, are they equals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topher1078 Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 Ha that's great - virtually half of the customizing sections of Neowin and and other customizing boards are devoted to answering that very question. Generally though, Y'z's dock is thought to be the better of the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
