Everything about the Dock
Dock to store applications that often we use, or application is running and also as a shortcuts folder, so it is easy to access the folder. But not only that the function of Dock, Dock there are many other functions. In addition to discussing the Dock function, I also discuss about Dock modifications, such as changing themes, and of course there was also discussion of the Dock shortcut keys. Please refer to this paper further.
Dock is one of the important elements in Mac OS X, because in the Dock we can put the applications and the folders that you often use. To access the Dock using the keyboard, press Control + F3, then you can use the arrow keys to select the objects in the Dock.
Running applications are marked with white dots glow, which is not marked application means the application is not running.
Manage Applications and Folders
To add applications to the Dock, we have to do is just pull the application icon from the Applications folder to the area between the Finder icon and the dividing line.
To add a stack folder, drag the folder you want into the area between the boundary and Trash.
If you want to remove the application or stack in dock, pull out your stay Dock. This application or folder will disappear. Applications or existing folders in the Dock is not real, application files and folders are not deleted the original. Running applications you can not remove from the Dock, you must close it first.
Dock can also serve to close an application for a while. Icon in the Dock can right-click (or Control + click) to bring up the contextual menu.
You can stop the problematic application by using the dock, the way he is after the right-click and then press Option. Thus Hide and Quit menu will change to Force Quit and Hide Others. Hide Others means other active applications will be hidden while icon selected applications will remain visible.
