I haven't updated to DP5 yet. Can anyone firm if it is fixed or not?
Trackpad? Magic Mouse?
Trackpad? Magic Mouse?
Here's how mine works:First swipe to reach the lower of the dock, second swipe to unhide it!
Works also with a single swipe from the center of the trackpad
Here's how mine works:
1.) "Slam" pointer to bottom of screen
2.) Bring pointer up 3.43 inches
3.) Crap! lifted finger off trackpad. Go to step 1.
4.) Slowly move pointer to bottom of screen
5.) Finger runs out of trackpad. Got to step 1.
6.) Success! (But forgot what I needed from Dock).

Yes, I think so. Either that or I'm just getting used to it. Regardless, After a while you don't really think about it anymore.I think it's pretty close now to how it was in 10.8, but not exactly.
It used to be that if you used this code in terminal you could move your mouse to the bottom of the screen in a full screen app the dock would pop up immediately. I don't think the code works at all anymore since it doesn't seem to change the dock behavior in non-fullscreen apps. I hope this gets fixed soon.
Remove Dock Delay
defaults write com.apple.Dock autohide-delay -float 0 && killall Dock
So I installed the official release yesterday and the Dock is not showing up within fullscreen apps until you swipe down twice and maybe 1 mile underneath your display...
I was googling and found this forum and I think I fixed it somehow just head over to the dock settings and turn on automatic hiding. Then on the desktop try how responsive it is then turn it off again.
Now I think the Dock is much more responsive than it was. Does anyone else have the same feeling?
Now only one longer swipe down is needed for the dock to be shown.
PS: doees it work for you? Vote this post up!
I was noticing the new way to get the dock to show up when in a full screen application and found this forum. So glad.
No, to activate the dock, it is no longer a two step procedure (put cursor on bottom edge, wait a sec, then drag downwards again).
The new method is drag cursor on bottom edge and without lifting your finger, wait a sec. Basically, it's the same as what you do on the upper edge to get the menu back.
I actually prefer the new way as it makes more sense. The original was actually unintuitive. Problem is, I've adapted to doing it the other way so am trying to re-train myself. The new way makes sense though.
