Bug Description

I am not able to drag and drop icons to docky and sometimes I am able to drag and rearrage icons on docky and sometimes don't. And ideas? Below is the output from running docky in the terminal with -d.

yeah i do. I am using ubuntu 10.04 netbook ( i am sorry i forgot to mention that). Actully i am able to drag and drop from Nautilus but i am not able to drag and drop from the main menu. And btw, thanks for the urgent reply. I love your software and desprately wanna keep it.

And there is no option to change the icon in of a certain program in the dock.

Also, (I am sorry i am asking too many questions, but this is my first time using any build of linux and also your instant reply has given me opportunity :) Is there a way that i can keep docky docked on the bottom of my screen like the Windows taskbar and not let other apps go behind it? If not, is it planned for any future releases?

You can edit the icons by editing the entries in the Gnome menu. We share files with that so if you edit it there we will see it too. Note that you might have to drag the icon off the dock (remove it) and then add it back after doing this.

If you disable hiding, then apps will try to not go behind the dock. There is no way to 100% enforce no apps will ever be behind it, but in that mode they should avoid it when maximizing at least.
