DESCRIPTION
DockSwitcher This app allows you to change the default dock in Leopard to a darker more 2D dock that can only normally be seen if your dock is set to display on the left or right instead of the bottom. It also allows you to switch back to the default "3D" style dock at will. New in 1.3 includes an option that allows your dock to show whether an application's windows are hidden by making the app's dock icon transparent.

I'm releasing this under the GPL 2, which I've included in this installer. Since I don't currently have the facilities to share files over the net so easily, if you want the source code (in the format of an XCode project) you'll have to e-mail me for them.

WHAT'S NEW

    DMARCOOT  Warning: this app hosed the mouse button mapping for Spaces on my Logitech mouse. I had to log out and log back in to get it to work.  (Version 1.3)

    BENTEK  This works fine for the bottom feeders. However, for those that prefer the sidewinder, 2D is our only option. Your tool did not work for me. I'm hoping this can be changed. I should also mention that I enjoy start pinning.

    Please, I really need your help. Just because a bunch of cry babies yelled, Apple changed the Dock in mid stream. Why didn't they just provide a button in the Prefs???? We haven't seen any changes in the Prefs for Dock since 10.3.

    That said, thank you for attempting to correct this. Keep it up. please pardon my vent…  (Version 1.2)
