dailo Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Does anyone know if it is possible to get rid of the quicksilver dock icon? Even when I uncheck the box it doesn't go away. Not a big deal, but it'd be nice to get rid of the dock icon. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/49317-anyone-using-quicksilver/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
t3mur Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 1: Quicksilver is {censored}. You just play around with thier stupid project. I dont get the concept of it, i mean if you want your trip in "3D", tape the damn thing. 2: Was OSX Leopard page the place to post this?

dailo Posted April 24, 2007 Author Share Posted April 24, 2007 Sorry I forgot to mention that I am using it in Leopard, and this only happens in Leopard and is not a problem in Tiger. I find Quicksilver pretty neat and I use it all the time to lauch programs and other things. It's pretty powerful if you learn all the features.

dailo Posted April 24, 2007 Author Share Posted April 24, 2007 Did apple remove the ability for Applications to alter the Dock or something in Leopard? My Adium no longer displays message count anymore which could explain why QS shows up in the dock now. I haven't been able to find any info on whether this is true or not. Just curious...

Paranoid Marvin Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 Quicksilver is a magical program with so many features that aren't documented and are difficult to use. As an app launcher, it is good (much faster than Spotlight) Also, the dock icon won't go in 9A410 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/49317-anyone-using-quicksilver/#findComment-360593 Share on other sites More sharing options...
asap18 Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Im sure leopard will allow this feature. Its most likely the Dock API has changed and quicksilver has not been updated to reflect these changes.

I dont get the concept of it, i mean if you want your trip in "3D", tape the damn thing. I encourage you to be more open minded. It is extremely useful. Just because it isn't helpful to you, does not mean that is the case for every other user of Quicksilver.

It can change tracks without me going to iTunes, Launch Programs and stuff that I dont know about. Also its freeware.

EFI Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Quicksilver is one of the best freeware if not THE best freeware app out there. It increased my productivity and responsiveness so much faster. Its awesome. Period. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/49317-anyone-using-quicksilver/#findComment-365215 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm confused about this statement and suspect you're talking about another app. Whats this about Quicksilver, trips in 3d and taping it?

Sabr Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Out of interest, what do you guys use Quciksilver for other than: Opening Programs Controlling iTunes Web searching Browse for files instead of using Finder I'm trying to understand if there are any hidden features of the program which I don't know of. I mean, it's a great application, but you guys speak so high of it. - Sb.

Shimms Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 I mostly use it for launching programs and changing iTunes tracks, but also use it to manage process trees, and kill non-responsive programs.

Plus, you can use it to quickly find files and folders, do web searches, etc... - Sb.
