Mini Launch Bar (Beta version available)

looks nice. Ill try it right away.

EDIT
Is there a GUI for the properties?
How can I change the language (I want to use my german translation)?
Another suggestion is to make it be on top of all things/windows.

Will you be releasing the source code for this application? If not, this unfortunately can not be posted here at the current time. This site (for now) only supports open source software.

If you are worried about people stealing all your work after you release the source, look into a license like the GPL, it requires any derivative works to also be GPL, so your code will be shared, but always be available, even in someone else's derivative work.

Wow this looks awesome! it looks much nicer than the plain menu, now if needs some work, a GUI for properties would be very nice, but seeing how this is just a preview, that means there's more to come, which leaves me excited

This is looking very nice!
Keep up the good work!

Once this becomes open source it will be much more awesome.

to say I love it And that it works great under Vista. Any chance that you could put the path to the folders on a tooltip as I cant tell all the identical folders apart

Feature Request:

Let user select the size of the icons. My "mini" bar extends the entire width of my monitor at 1680px. Being able to pick a smaller icon size would help.

I tested it a bit more and I really like it!
There is a feature I'd like to see:

The possibility to choose how much icons to show at once and then the possibility to scroll through the remaining ones horizontally (by adding an arrow at the right perhaps?) Otherwise, as said above, the screen can get too cluttered. And maybe the option to choose the size of the icons wouldn't be a bad idea.

I know this is still a preview version but for me it's an impressive preview version which is already pretty stable!

I like it. Very fine.

Yet Another Portable Apps Launcher

But this isn't only a portableapps launcher!!! For the ones we prefer using the portableapps from a local hard disk, it can be also set to your favourite directories on your PC, or programs you installed & use frequently. I'm in favour of all the ones don't say nothing of portable , even i like trhat one of "yeet another portableapps launcher" (i'll prefer "yet another app launcher")

Beta 1 works fine here!

Great program! I like PStart allot but your program might replace it. A few comments:
I would like to change the icons of the shortcuts.
The rounded corners look a little “blocky” on my 1152 x 864 screen.
It would be nice if the shortcut “tip” could show on the bottom.

Again, great program!
Bill

Having used for a couple of days, it has replaced PStart ( a good program itself). I hope this program continues it's development! I "played" with the default skin files (I now have square corners).
Thanks again, Bill

Any names going?
From some of Patrick's, maybe perhaps:

• PockDock (Dang, it's an Ipod thingy!)
• PocketDocker (Only 1 result on google)
• DockonUSB
• Dockit in your Pocket
• FlashLauncher
• PauDs (Pocket lAUncher Docking style)
• That's it...

May I also ask about when the next version will be published?

And maybe what features to come?

I think an intarestant feature would be (when you fix that bug of the dividers) when making multiple rows, to "name" them & to put an horizontal long divider in front of the line (but the name in the same color as the dividers, which should be grey, maybe darker) like This

PD:What is that lightning-like button?
