Hi. I appreciate you for making a super great dock program.
I've just installed it a few days ago, and I like Nexus dock very much.

Just one thing I want is to change the delay/time of showing preview thumbnails when mouseover on the icon that has multiple running app windows.

For example, I have 5 windows of Windows Explorer and I have a fixed icon of it on my dock. (grouping similar windows into one icon is enabled) I move my mouse cursor on the icon and I have to wait for about 1 second to see the thumbnails of the opened windows.

It's great once it shows and I move the cursor onto the other icons of the dock, there is no delay for other preview thumbnails. :idea:

I try to find the feature in Preferences - Tasks - Configuration:Advanced. I couldn't find a slide for changing the delay, but only enable/disable/by-left-click the preview thumbnails.

It would be such a great help if you make the feature or tell me any workaround like adding a key/value in the Windows registry.

Thanks! Have a wonderful weekend! :D

Wow! A one second delay is a feckin' long delay to have to wait! Not.

That's the way it has to work. Nothing to be done about it. It would be too big a hit on resources to cache all the icons etc., only to have to change them every time something changes.
