downloaded the new beta with aeropeek feature but I cant get it to work?

I have the tasks running on my dock, hover over them with the mouse, but no aeropeek. Am I doing something wrong?

7 Home Premium x64 works just fine.

It turns out it's just the way I have my dock set up.   All my application shortcuts are in stacks docklets...doh!  If I put a shortcut on the dock, everything is working. It looks like I need to reconfigure things to take advantage of the new feature, easy enough now that the fly-out menus are back.

Go ahead,have a laugh at my expense.

ok, it's clearly working for some but not all. No matter what I try I cant get the aeropeek to work when I hover over a running task in the dock...

Here's a dumb question to throw your way, but did you reboot after installing the update?

Hover over the shortcut for it not the running icon that displays when it is running.

LOL that works, wouldnt it make more sense to hover over the running shortcut? Or have the ability to aeropeek on both?

Wait.. you mean you don't hover over the OD created taskbar icon. What kind of sense is that? Suppose I have the windows taskbar hidden and use the OD Start Menu button to launch the (broken) Start Menu and then launch my app. I have no Aeropeek then? Sorry, thats a big fail for the use of that feature.

Yes, it would. I hope they make it so.

so, Stardock, are you going to change the behaviour of OD2 aeropeek so that it functions on the running dock and not the task? This IMO would be ace!
