Rocket Dock — a functional alternative to ObjectDock’y

A launcher program that allows you to transform the routine and boring operation of launching programs into a beautiful action.

The program's functionality comes on the heels of ObjectDock, which I have already written about. The plus is that this program has almost full support for the tray, that is, programs running and collapsed into the tray are displayed in the dock. But not only these advantages have this launcher.

All minimized programs are displayed in the dock in small previews that change along with the applications in real time. PNG with translucency can be used as skins, any high-resolution images and ICOs are suitable for icons. Smooth animation and special effects accompany the work of the utility. RocketDock is compatible with MobyDock, ObjectDock, PK and Y’z skins, which greatly expands the customization options for yourself. There are several modes for highlighting programs hanging in the dock, font selection, and hotkey settings.

The functionality can be expanded with so-called Docklets — mini-applications that run inside RocketDock. There is a separate section with these extensions on the offset, who didn't have enough — can use Docklets from ObjectDock, since they are fully compatible. The program has very modest system requirements, working even on slow computers with integrated graphics cards. By rewriting the program to a USB flash drive after installation, you will get a portable version, which is convenient, especially if you configure it to autostart when mounting the media. The program is multilingual, unicode, completely free.
