Top?
With my dual monitor setup, a 23" and a 30", with two DragThing docks at the bottom and right side of the main monitor, and the left side of the monitor too far over for the Apple dock, I decided to try the top. You can use a utility like Cocktail or Xupport to activate this feature.
Top?
I keep it at the top and after a few days of it being there I can use the track-pad on my 17" PowerBook to stop on a dime precisely where that "thin strip" of activating pixels is. It's not for everyone, or even ideal, but it's certainly not impossible to activate.
Right, End pinning, Visible
I don't keep anything in my dock. I use it for informational purposes only as to see if an app is running. Right end pinning is my preference and 16 pixel wide (The smalles I can get). The only things constantly in my Dock are the Trash (always in the same location) and the Finder. All the other items change with use.
Top?
The disadvantage to using Cmd-Opt-D to invoke the dock is that it will push and resize windows that happen to be in the way. Even after the dock has retracted, the affected window(s) will not move back/resize to the previous state before Cmd-Opt-D. This does not happen with the mouse. |
