Poll: Where do you put your dock?

[peterjhill]

So, there is the question. What is your answer?

Me, left, no autohide

Bottom now, but I used to have it on the left after the 10.1 update, just because I could.

I also used to hide it but not anymore as it gets annoying when I put the mouse there but don't actually want the dock.

I was thinking of starting a poll on this topic myself, as I was interested, but was worried that people would flame me if it had been done already.

I have it over on the right.
I'm running a dual display with the secondary monitor to the left.

Ah, yes, another slow day for rumors and general discussion. The bottom, if you must know.

 

[irmongoose]

[danman]

none of the above!

I have mine, on the left, pinned at the start, Autohide on.. makes -soooo- much more sence than it sliding around all over the place.

auto hide on both machines, but bottom on the Desktop 21" monitor and left on the TiPB.

[stromie952]

on the bottom with auto hide and transparent dock (or whatever its called nowadays)

'Windows' conventional.

Color me boring, but it's: Bottom, not hid. I think that the location is just a throwback from my Windows days. For me it's like Pavlov's Dogs - when my apps are open I simply expect to see them at the bottom somewhere (in other words, I left the 'Start' bar where it was on the Windows platform too).

W00t. I think I get change back on .02 cents for that one.

I have my transparant dock left, no auto-hide.
If it gets in the way, I cmd-alt-d to hide it.

I so wanted to say "Anywhere she lets me", but this is a family web site...and it's not an option...

...oh, you mean my dock...bottom, no hiding...wait, that still sounds bad...

 

[jelloshotsrule]

left, no hiding..

i hide it if i know i'll be doing a lot in fcp or photoshop or somethng

but that's the only time

 

[mac15]

on the bottom, default baby yeah wooh

 

[britboy]

I have mine along the bottom, with no hiding, but pegged to the right-hand corner. If i had it on either of the sides, the icons would be too small to make out.

 

[King Cobra]

I have my dock position as def. from OS X. I have the opacity set to 0 percent. (Uh, transparency = 100 percent. )

 

[kishba]

Geert, I love your avatar.
Could stare at it for hours.

Thxs man.
Only trouble is that I can't get that little jump out of it.

 

[mmmdreg]

mines on the left starting at the top via tinkertool...ie, it is not centred on the left...apart from that, its just the standard colours 'cause I haven't gotten around to transparing docking it...

 

[Jbear]

Yeah, Im pretty boring too. Bottom, no hiding, but it is transparent!!

 

[eyelikeart]

I got mine to the left...autohide on...and transparent...

I hate a cluttered desktop...and now that I can hide my hard drive...it's virtually clutter-free!

btw..like that on my Ti & on my G4 at work...although the workstation always has stuff everywhere...kinda hard when it's a production system...

Bottom, no hiding with one caveat-- the dock is shifted to the left side of the screen.
