Hi! Most (if not all) applications in OS X, when started, have an icon of a running application in Dock. When a user quits this application, it either disappears from Dock, or remains there if "Keep in Dock" options has been selected.
Finder behaves differently. When it is running, it does not have an item "Quit" in its Menu. When it does not run, it does not have an item "Remove from Dock". One can not move it into other than the first position in Dock (or drag it out of Dock to delete its icon). Instead of "Force Quit" in its Dock menu it has "Relaunch". The only thing it has similar to other apps - is a "Force Quit" option when Finder is in state "Application Not Responding". Would it be possible to create a similar icon? Is it hardcoded in Dock, or by manipulating with Dock's plist or some other way I could make an another application behave like this? _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
