Quick Dock Applications

Wed 12 Feb 2003 13:05:49

OS X users, you can get a quick Apps popup by simply dragging the Applications folder into the right side of the Dock. While clicking on it will bring up the applications window as expected, right-clicking (or Ctrl-clicking or click-holding) will bring up an Applications menu, just like an old-style Apple menu or Start button.

Oh that is just too cool. Thanks Paulo!

You took the words right of out my mouth, Tim (literally -- I'm not kidding) :D

For those of us fortunate enough to have a three-button mouse, the right click does the same thing. :p

This is cool indeed. I read somewhere that dragging a folder of aliases to applications creates a faster application menu than dragging the actual Applications folder into the dock. It helps a lot in my case. I've got a poky 500mhz iBook.

I have to say, that was my first task after installing OS X. No real news here, glad you've finally found it out ;)
