Use DockBert

If you use LaunchBox to have a quick access to your favorite applications, another alternative is to use the native application named DockBert.

To install it, open HaikuDepot and type "dock" in the search field :

Select DockBert and proceed with the installation.

The first time DockBert is launched, the below help message is displayed:

It means the below features are available :

• A quick access to the trash which is really a nice feature
• An access to the workspaces
• The display of the clock
• Your favorite items which are blank by default
• An access to the opened applications

These features are reflected from left to right :

You can use right-click on the icons available and in case of the trash, you can decide to empty it :

When the trash can be emptied, its icon aspect is changing :

For the workspaces, if you do a middle-click on the dock, you can select to which workspace number you want to go to :

And of course, you can add favorite shortcuts to your applications like Genio, QtCreator and Pe below :

The right-click on the applications' shortcut is providing the same kind of menu than the deskbar.

It means you can decide to hide all the windows of a specific application:

Last but not least, DockBert is a dock, meaning it's always visible, except if you want to hide it :

It means that when using the MinimizeAll native application, it will not be hidden!

This is the kind of feature which - I think - is missing in LaunchBox:)

Do you use DockBert under Haiku ?
