OS X Tip – Stacks

If you want to add an item to your Dock that will show you a list of your recent Items, it’s easy. Open a Terminal Window and type: (All in one line)

defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-others -array-add ‘{ “tile-data” = { “list-type” = 1; }; “tile-type” = “recents-tile”; }’

To disable this, simply use the defaults delete command, for example:

defaults delete com.apple.dock persistent-others -array-add ‘{ “tile-data” = { “list-type” = 1; }; “tile-type” = “recents-tile”; }’
