Or.

~/User/YOU/Library/Prefences

Look for com.apple.dock.plist.

Open it with Property List Editor (From Developer Install)

On the list look for pinning
Change it to either
Start , Middle , end
(Left , Middle , Right) is what it means.

Save and either quit dock or log out

I forgot the command to kill the dock i had an apple script of it once but cant find it.


To say on topic i think the dock should be able to have Quick Launch. Kinda like Tiger launch but in the dock. Being able to remove The trash and stick it on my desktop instead would be nice. even though i know the alias trick

A free floating dock would be nice sometimes when a file gets stuck down in that corner and i cant get it out. . I Think apple needs to focus on that! i hate it. i have to move all my files to the right side of the screen just so they dont get lost under the dock

Dock is a nice little app that Should really be fixed up to work as anything we want in it.
