I suppose that people who don't know any better might think that this is something you can only get from Apple, but as it turns out there are docks for Linux and Windows. You bring a running program to the front, or launch a program by hovering over the dock with your mouse, and clicking on the icon. Docks also can be configured to display running programs that have been minimized in a mini window. Docks also can run small programs or docklets that can do things like display a clock or show you the weather. The Dock is sort of an always there menu with big icons that spawn your most frequently used programs. You can choose to minimize apps to the dock in the "General" tab, and zoom amount and width in the "Icons" tab.One of the distinctive features of Apple computers is a piece of software called " The Dock". Themes are under "Style", I'm using "WhiteCrystal". If you did remove it, just Right-Click anywhere on the dock and select "Dock Settings".Ģ. If you didn't remove it, there should be an icon that says "Dock Settings." Click it. You may now select a path and an icon and start replacing the empty "My Documents" and "My Music" folders!ġ. Next, Right-Click the stack icon on your dock and select "Icon Settings". To add stack docklets, right-click the dock (anywhere will be fine) and point to "Add Item", then at the bottom of the list should be "Stack Docklet". Extract the folder into the "Docklets" folder of wherever you choose to install RocketDock.Ģ. Now, you are pretty much done except you might need some instruction with RocketDock. Download and install Taskbar Hide, then fire it up and hit CTRL+T to hide the taskbar, now minimize it. Move the taskbar to the top of your screen.ĥ. Right-Click desktop>View>Uncheck "Show Desktop Icons".Ĥ. Get the Leopard Background and set it as your background pic.ģ. Download, install, and run RocketDock and the Stacks Docklet.Ģ. Check out the screenshots of my new desktop!ġ.
