Dock Spaces Puts A Different Dock In Every Space


Using Dock Spacers from Caleb PIke on Vimeo.

Here’s something I’ve not thought about before: an utility that lets you create multiple Dock configurations, each one mapped to one of your Spaces. It’s called Dock Spaces and you can get it from here.

As someone who rarely makes use of Spaces and always keeps the Dock hidden from view, this leaves me bemused at best. But I know lots of you love yer Spaceses and yer Dockses, so this one’s for you.

(Look again at the video, though: wouldn’t you find it annoying to wait for the second’s pause as each fresh Dock is spawned for each Space? I would. Blimey.)

    Great idea, worth implementing by Apple. Should be there already, so people would have a good excuse to use spaces. But the plugin sounds to me more like another little app to eat up some RAM and processor time, no matter how insignificant.

    Hey.. Yeah I am the guy that made the video and I thought I let you all know that the application works a lot faster than in the video. I was mobile with my macbook and iShowU was eating up CPU and the result was docks loading slowly. Its actually a log faster.
