Dock Detox [quitting dock & ideas]
Authored by: loren_ryter on Jan 03, '02 08:14:04AM

or, presumably you could re-launch the dock without logging out using the applescript: "tell application "dock" to quit"--I have such a script in my script menu for those problem dock occasions. ;-)

a "haxie" that would be really nice would modify the bouncing behaviour to be less intrusive somehow-- and/or to have an exclusions list for apps that would still bounce. ideas of how it could be less intrusive: icon turns a certain color, icon rotates, icon wiggles instead of bounces, etc. don't know if this is possible to modify but it would be very nice...

Dock Detox [quitting dock & ideas]

Check out Fire.app to see your idea in action already,
you can set it to flash its dock icon when receiving an IM,
bounce wildly, or not at all...
