OnyX icon

Dock

You can use the Dock pane of the Parameters toolbar item to set the parameters of some hidden functions of the Dock.

Effekte

Effekte: By default, the Dock offers two minimization effects (Genie and Scale). You can use OnyX to turn on a third effect (Suck). Choosing one of these options immediately modifies the parameters and reopens the Dock. To view the effect in slow motion, press and hold the Shift key while minimizing.

Proportionale Verkleinerung: By default, when you minimize a window in the Dock, its preview is proportional. Disabling this function forces the reduction of the preview icon unproportionately (128 pixels x 128 pixels).

Position

Position: You can use this option to place the Dock at the bottom, left, or right side of the screen. Choosing one of these options immediately modifies the parameters and reopens the Dock.

Effekte

Öffnen von Programmen: Enabling this option will make the icon bounce in the Dock when you open an application.

Falls Warnung im Hintergrund: When an application is running in the background and solicits your intervention (such as an alert message appearing or a request to enter your password), its icon bounces in the Dock at regular intervals. You can use this option to remove this behavior.

Anzeigen

Nur aktive Programme zeigen: Select this option to display only the icons of open applications in the Dock.

Transparente Icons für ausgeblendete Programme: You can use this option to cause the icons of hidden applications to appear as transparent.

Dock automatisch ein- und ausblenden: If you turn on this option, the Dock will be hidden when you don't use it. To display the Dock, move the pointer to the bottom or an edge of the screen.

Animation ausschalten: Use this option to turn off the graphic effect when showing/hiding the Dock.

Dock verbergen/Dock zeigen: You can use these buttons to hide and show the Dock.

Verschiedenes

Icon-Größe sperren: This option prevents resizing icons in the Dock.

Dock-Inhalt sperren: This option prevents moving and removing icons in the Dock.

Single-Application-Modus aktivieren: In the Dock, when you click the icon of an application that is already open, it appears in the foreground. Turning on this mode will hide all other applications simultaneously.

Stacks

Mouse-Over in der Gitteransicht bei Stapeln aktivieren: When a stack displays its contents in a grid, the items are framed when the mouse passes above.

Stapel für Favoriten/Benutzte Ordner hinzufügen: You can use this local menu to create a Recent/Favorite Items stack to the left side or the right side of the Dock. This stack has a special function. In the Dock, Control-click its icon, and select the items that you want to appear. Then click its icon again to display the previously selected items in a grid (such as Recent Applications, Recent Documents, Recent Servers, Favorite Volumes, or Favorite Items).

Platzhalter zwischen den Icons hinzufügen: Invisible spaces can be added to the left side or the right side of the Dock. These spaces are moveable and can be removed like any icon.

Click the Restore Defaults button to reset the parameters and to cancel all modifications caused by OnyX or by another application.

Click the Restore the Dock button to reset the parameters and to restore the display. The display will be the same as when the operating system and the applications were first installed.
