TransDock X lets you transform Mac OS X's Dock in seconds!

Let's face it, not everyone likes the Dock's default appearance. With just a few clicks, TransDock X can turn on Dock transparency (no more distracting reflections of application icons when the Dock's positioned at the bottom of your screen). You can also use TransDock X to reposition the Dock around your screen.

With the default settings, I got a dark, opaque Dock background which obscured other items behind the Dock when active. The high-contrast helped visibility of some Dock icons, but fine details in some other icons were lost. The Dock reverted to Mavericks' default gray frequently and needed to be "toggled" to restore a dark background. Also, I noted some odd masking failures around the trash & nearby icons, letting patches of Mavericks' gray background slip through. For the time being, I've chosen to stay with Mavericks' default Dock appearance (the version I d/l is dated Nov. 4...).

I intended to post this as a reply to @tobiasl6093 — who suggested a different app called DocMod, from a developer called "Spyresoft.com" — That name made sense, after I discovered the app attempting to harvest my contacts!!!

Since "DocMod" isn't listed on MacUpdate, this looked like the best alternative spot for posting a warning to folks tempted to follow "tobiasl6093" advice.

TransDock X dose not work with Mavericks, so I do not understand why you are trying to make it work and posting the results here? After all it will not work with Mavericks as posted on 02 Aug 2013.

If "Nothinggoes (developer)" was giving more attention to this thread, "N*" would see that a link to malware was posted as a "solution" to "TransDock X." on 15-Dec. Because that malware — "DocMod" is not available directly thru MacUpdate, I posted my concerns about that product "HERE" — because "HERE" is WHERE MacUpdate members are going to find a link to it!!!

Since I already attempted (failed) to explain this more than one-month ago, the issue (malware threat) may now be easier for "Nothinggoes (developer)" to grasp, now that I have added a whole-bunch of additional exclamation points!!!!!!

Got it now??????

We will take the high road here (Deltaman) you stay on that low road.

@Nothinggoes
As you have stated, this is no longer compatible with Mavericks, and that's fine. You should ask MacUpdate to change the description on this page, which still says "10.7.4 or later". And on your own web page it still says "Mac OS X 10.7.4 & up".

That would probably help avoid further confusion and frustration. It doesn't really help when you keep saying you have posted this information, because your posts eventually scroll down and off the page. Better to change the description and requirements.

When OS X Mavericks is released TransDock X and many other dock apps will no longer work! The new system -> (OS X Mavericks) uses the system and not hard files to draw the dock. Only corners and stacks use hard files. Oh well, hope some has found TransDock X useful... Thanks NG

Mavericks seems full of gratuitous and unwelcome changes to the GUI which previously worked well or were easily tweaked — but now many are hard-coded to suit misguided developers' instincts...

Jonny Ive is acting like an exuberant puppy who's just jumped the fence & won't be content 'til he's wizzed on every last tree in Cupertino!

Is there no workaround possible?

The 2D look & transparent background may be restored by a future "hack" to the Doc.app, but those types of fixes tend to break frequently when Apple releases updates.

On the other hand — Right now is a particularly good time to post feedback about Mavericks issues and concerns to:

Apple.com/feedback

The best feedback about Mavericks 10.9 will be specific about how you've been inconvenienced by an altered or removed feature; the folks reading these posts are thick-skinned, so just posting nasty flames won't likely be taken seriously...

TransDock X 1.0.1 is broken with the Lion 10.7.4 update, but Mirage 1.0.1 works fine. Mirage needs to be downloaded from Softpedia, http://mac.softpedia.com/get/Wallpapers/Ferber-Mirage.shtml .
