Dock Dividers allow you to organize your Dock to group associated programs any way you want.
To install, simply drag the dividers into your dock as if they were normal applications. Then tuck away the Dock Dividers folder anywhere on your Macintosh HD.
I'll start this by saying that I LOVE these. I have about 75 items in my dock that I have always kept grouped by category, but something as simple as a vertical line makes it 100% easier to find the apps i'm looking for. Now a MAJOR complaint. Using these on Snow Leopard, they work flawlessly, but since these work by putting an icon in the dock for an application that doesn't exist, and it happens to be a PowerPC application, in Lion these display a circle with a line through it, denoting that it is a PowerPC application and is no longer supported
Nice. Very nice. The download on the main window would work better for docks on the side on the screen.
The alternate download available works better for docks along the bottom of the screen.
I like this little app. Some people suggest using Butler and apps like that, but I prefer the simplicity of the Dock. I don't want all those additional "features" in an app launcher. If I do want additional features in the Dock, there are programs that expand the Dock's functionality.
Sorry, sidetracked.
I like this little app and it's found a home on my Mac. It's made my messy, jumbled Dock a paragon of order.
If youre still using Apple's Dock instead of Butler, Drag Thing and the like (or Quicksilver, Namely, and Witch-type things) this utility represents a good idea. It's simple enough to use, but the implementation is a bit?unusual: actual objects (is that right?) you drag into the Dock. This means you can't drag the same divider into two different slots in the Dock. One divider per Dock-slot. Also, the dividers take up a larger amount of room than one might expect. A good companion to this idea, more critical even perhaps, I would think, would be a way to name or otherwise mark files and folders dragged into the Dock.
I have this app running on my imac and its great however that is with a mac running osx10.4, i also have an ibook running mac osx 10.3.9 and I can't get it to recognise the docks at all., it downloads but the docks are only recognised as application files, not as actual docks.
can anyone help

I love having the vertical line dividers to break up the many icons in the dock. I org by type of app, so having the lines is a simple visual helper.
if I accidentally click on the line, it quits itself and no harm is done.

the dock is the best.
