Apple's Dock

[surjones]

Okay, I was wondering how I do separators in the Dock, Kinf of like the trash can is separated by a separator. thanks so much

[jondaapplegeek]

not possible, there is only that one to split trash, minimized windows, files+folders from the applications.

[surjones]

Okay so how do you put apps, files, or folder in there then?

[Brad]

Drag and drop. :p

I take it you're a new Mac user? ;) When in doubt, try drag and drop!

[surjones]

haha No I am not a new mac user, never new I could put files or Flders next to the Trash can until I saw a screen shot of it... And I tried to Drag and Drop the application folder or an application, it did not work. . Brad: maybe you think I am talking about the dock area, I am talking by the trash. Which is in repsonce to Jondaa..sho said you can put Files+Fiolders there... So that is what my next responce was in regards to.

Files and folders got right of the divider (where the trash can is etc), app's go the other side! If you have a folder in the dock try clicking and holding over it - quite nice + very useful!

One moment... I'll make a video for you. :)

[surjones]

alright you ROCK!!!

Sorry about the jerky cursor movement. I'm working on my PowerBook's trackpad...

Does that explain it or am I still clueless to what you meant? :)

[surjones]

thanks it does. I was dragging the Folder icons in the finder on the left, but the Actual folder works fine :) thanks again
