Jiri: Finally, after a thousand of tweaks, I got something. It's not a big thing.
I have the PixOS suite, and a made a skin for your menu matching de PixOS style.
Now, I have two questions:
1) Can I make free form skins? I tried but I couldn't.
2) Look carefully to the picture, exactly above the arrow, there is a space that I can't get rid of it.
I don't want to post the skin with this gap. Can you help me?
Here is the picture:

PS: I made the Icon that you see on the picture, the one with the Macromedia logo. Specially made for the Menu, I will do MS Office and Adobe for now.
THANKS!

Hello,
first of all, let me apologize for answering with the delay. The reason is simple: I am out of the net at weekends.
Well, I reviewed your problem (I like your skin and look forward to it). The case probably is of the area metrics flavour. Do you mind sending me the PNG file containing your skin (I could try to create the propper metrics for it): JiriKrivanek@BetaControl.cz?
I do not know anything about the free-form skins, thus it is probably unsupported. Could you give me some basic explanations? I might implement it, just for the fun.

Supported OSes:
MS Windows XP and MS Windows 2000 only.
As it uses the GDI+, the gdiplus.dll must be on the PATH.
Under WXP this is no problem.
Under W2000 the gdiplus.dll MUST be installed. If you are using the ObjectDock then simply go to its directory, locate the gdiplus.dll and copy it into the WINNT directory, otherwise you can download
the GDI+ distro from the Microsoft web site (it is similarly to DirectX for free).

Is there any way to change the size of the menu?

I am currently doing my first skin for this handy tool and I have one question :
Is there a parameter that can set the menu-graphics to stretch rather than to tile ?

No, the skin engine is very simple and thus very limited (I originally made it to enable the aqua look skin, nothing else).
In case that Stardock releases the next OD version with the full menu support, I will close the KkMenu project.
Otherwise I am ready to slowly do the following improvements:
1. Rework the skin engine to enable the free form support. Including a simple skin editor utility.
2. Implement submenus.
3. Implement a simple menu editor utility.
4. Improve the graphical performance (may be).

make sure the icons are in the same folder as the KkMenu.exe and that the title is correct.

Wow!! This sounds like an awesome addition to Object Dock. Great idea Jiri. I truly hope it is incorporated into the next edition of Object Dock.

Just wanted to throw in that I really love this program and have wasted many hours the last two days tweaking it and getting the menu to work. Thanks to Jiri for being so nice to respond to all of our questions and comments. Bravo and looking forward to more great things!

As always great. Now i can`t even imagine my OD without Jiri`s menu. How does the installation of this v2 menu difers from v1? How do i install it?
PS My friend uses Yz and he said it won`t work with Yz.
Keep on the great work mate

I like the update. The built-in sub-menu is a great idea. It's better than the recursive type sub-menu I was using with the previous release. Keep up the great work!

Regarding the other docks (than Stardocks one):
1. Yz dock. It
unfortunatelly does not support my W2k. Thus I am unable to test it.
2. MobyDock. It does not work with any of my (two, i.e. work and home) PCs. Thus I am unable to test it.
