May 3, 2016 - While I'm using Plex in my example, these steps can be used to add a Dock icon for just about any website. First, launch Safari and navigate to.
The dock has been a staple of Mac OS X since its creation and not much has been needed to improve its functionality, but when you add theming to the mix, you can run into some issues. At times, I have my Mac set up with a particular theme that doesn't need a dock taking up precious screen real estate.

Hiding the dock may help out aesthetically, but in the end, I am left without a way to open apps or see which ones are open. Well, that was the case until I found. Like the regular Dock, Ring Menu contains all of your app and folder shortcuts, but with the added bonus of acting as an overlay that appears wherever your mouse cursor is instead being anchored to the bottom or side of your screen. Now whenever you have the dock set to autohide, it will be completely hidden, but if you click Option + Command + D again, it will reappear and stay in view.
To reset the autohide function back to normal, you will need to open up Terminal and enter another command:. defaults delete com.apple.dock autohide-delay && killall Dock Step 3: Add Shortcuts Populating Ring Menu with app, file, and folder shortcuts works the same way as it does for your regular dock—the only caveat being that shortcuts cannot be transferred from the Mac OS X version to Ring Menu, so be sure to use Finder instead.
Just like and, Mac also features a Dock with different apps for easy access. At times, the Dock looks crowded with all apps on it.
It doesn’t affect the functionality, but having a little space between the icons would give a cool look to the eyes. To your surprise, it is possible to add space between icons on Dock of your Mac OS X.
There aren’t any preferences to be done for this feature. You’ll need to use Terminal in order to add a separator between Dock icons. The process is pretty simple, you’ll just need to copy paste the command we have mentioned. Give it a glance to the details we have covered below.
