How to turn the Dock Transparent in Mavericks?
it's been removed since mountain lion hasn't it? I prefer it that way anyway
You prefer transparent or you prefer transparency removed?
Regardless, why not both? A simple opacity slider would be all that's needed to please everyone. I usually go with a dark desktop background, and the blaring bright dock bothers me.
lack of options is apple's achilles heel
I prefer the mountain lion dock (and now mavericks) but I wouldn't mind an option to turn it on of course. (That won't happen though)
Can you still flatten the dock in Mavericks? You could make it 2D and stay at the bottom in 10.8.x.
The Mountain Lion dock is transparent when it's on the left or right. That's what's lost moving to Mavericks.
Do you guys do things with your devices, or just things to your devices?
These changes are so subtle that people who use these for work would have never noticed.

They aren't subtle. One of the reasons I prefer the ML 2D dock is that the open app indicator is much easier to read against a black background, making it...easier for work.
hey, fisherking, just wondering where you got the desktop background pic from.
thanks
Is there a way to lock the Dock so that moving the mouse to the bottom of the screen doesn't cause the Dock to appear?
that's an interesting question...
i haven't used the dock since 10.4. i keep it locked away, and have other ways of accessing things (launchpad, the app switcher, mailunreadmenu in the menubar)...
i've always hated the dock (at least, on a 13" mbp).
i use this...but it's not for everyone...
i have a key command (control-option-command-D) to lock & unlock it)...
I think another way you could do it is to set the delay of showing the dock to some huge number using the terminal.
