Hello, I was wondering if there is a way to get rid of the small arrow which appears below any dock place holder. I don't like it, and I don't need it :).

I've looked through the options and didn't find one, but there are so many I may have missed it.

Can anybody help me? Thanks in advance.

Under Dock Properties - Appearance tab - near lower right corner - Un-check "Show indicator for on shortcuts to applications that are currently running"

That's already unchecked, but it's not what I'm talking about.

I'm talking about the small arrow that appears next to dock entries which are just containers for other dock entries.

In the Winstep/Themes directory goto the Theme you use.
In this Theme folder (of the theme you use) there may or may not be the following three files:
- nxSubC.png (arrow which is shown when icon is not selected)
- nxSubM.png (arrow which is shown mouse is on icon)
- nxSubO.png (arrow which is shown when subdock is opened)

Add (when not present) or replace (when present) these files. Use a fully transparent 16x16 bit png file for this, to make the arrow disappear.
Don't forget to reboot, so the changes are applied.

Thanks a lot, that's what I was looking for.
