Hello,
I would like to know if there is a way to change my dock when opening certain Adobe applications. For instance, normally when surfing the web or whatever I like when the dock is fixed at the bottom like normal. What I would love to happen is simple but to complex for me to figure out. Since I am a professional working regularly with photo/video I prefer to use Yosemite's new option of dark mode. There are 3 apps that I would like a automated process to happen: Adobe Lightroom 5, Photoshop CS6, and After Effects CS6.

Upon launching any one of these programs I would like the dock to change accordingly with this workflow:

System Preferences>General>Appearance>Graphite,
">">">Use dark menu bar and Dock,
">Dock>Position on screen=Left,
">">Automatically hide and show the Dock.

Of course, upon quitting one of these applications, I would like this process to revert back to how it was originally with the position of the dock, appearance, auto-hide ect.

Is there any scripts of automated workflows that could help me achieve this? I would be greatly appreciated if someone could walk me through this process to increase my workflow.

Thanks for any support you may give me.
