Hi I've installed Cairo Dock 2.0.3 on my Ubuntu 9.04. It is very nice, I love it.
But I found one problem, I would like to have on my dock 5 launchers to open differents directory via Nautilus, the equivalent of a "Place" launcher in Ubuntu.
The quick browse applet doesn't work for me because it open a curtain window with the contents of the directory (I' prefer a standar Nautilus window) and I didn' t understand how to have 5 on the dock.
So I found the solution to make 5 launchers on the dock, with the command "nautilus /dir/path/to/open", it works fine except that I can open only one window at a time, if I have a window opened and click on another the first one get closed and more messes.
To open more windows after the first one I have to use the "Launch new" option. that is not very useful.
Any option to open as many windows as I want with just one click? |

Ok, thank you very much for the quick answer, it works
But now I found a funny trick that I can' t understand.
the launchers point to 5 different folders, I can open as many windows I want even of the same folder, except for one of them.
This launcher points to "/home/luca/foto", if I open it as first ok, if I open it as second or more it only opens a balloon with the name of the other folders opened  is the only that does that.
Why?
I tried to delete and redo the launchers, but has the same behaviour |

to have several times the same applet in your dock :
activate it once, and then, right click on the applet's icon -> instanciate one more time.
then configure this new instance the way you want 
Note that you could also use Shortcuts, that can display the Nautilus bookmarks in a sub-dock 
If yo want to have many times the same launcher, I suggest you to set the class (under "extra parameters" in the launcher config) to anything (like abcdefg), so that they don't all take the application indicator.
I don't understand this ballon bug, it seems quite funny  |

this is the dock, the first icon on the left is Audacious, the following 5 icons are launchers I made manually, inside I put the command "nautilus /path/to/dir".
As nochka85 said I can launch them using the SHIFT+LeftButton, not very comfortable but it works.
Now you gave me the right solution: I wrote something in the extra param -> class of each launcher and I can launch them all toghether. Thanks a lot.
Any way just for your use you can see in the screenshto the baloon I mentioned before. If you want more details please tell me.
Thank you so much again |

oh, you mean that ballon 
it's a sub-dock
and it's here because in your config, applis and launchers are mixed togather.
the little trick I made you do also resolve this "problem" |
