# CrystalDock
This Dock was inspired by Silmeria Dock which can be found here: https://www.deviantart.com/mixsilmeria/art/Silmeria-Dock-670809026
I decided I did not like the way I had to add or remove or even interact with the settings and files itself, so I decided to expand and create it from scratch using WPF which is consequently my first WPF applcation.
Some Features:
- Snapping to stay inside the screen(s)
- Location saving, no reason to deal with manipulating numbers to move it around, just unlock drag to where you want, lock again.
- Able to remove an Entry and have the dock update on the fly
- Similar icon layout/style as Silmeria Dock with some twists and additions
- Dragging and dropping .lnk/.exe/.url files onto the dock will add them to the list
- Quick refresh by right clicking and refreshing
- Settings menu which allows you to modify icons without going into the settings.ini file
- Popup icon which indicates where your mouse is hovering even if there isn't a hover icon specified
- New System Monitor window which, currently, only allows viewing the drives installed and the total/free space
- Added a way to show the windows again if a user used Win+D or the Taskbar Show/Hide Windows Button previously there was no way to get the window back without closing and reopening. It's kind of a hacky fix but it works.
