ClearDock - Change the Dock’s background

By default, the Mac OS X Dock has a semitransparent white background that holsters the Dock’s icons. ClearDock is a nice little utility that allows you to customize the Dock background to be completely transparent, or if you’d prefer, you can select a different semitransparent color. It’s super easy to use, and best of all, it’s completely free. Check out the screenshot below to see the transparent effect in action.


ClearDock features:

  • Remove white Dock background under all Dock icons.
  • Change the white Dock background color to any other color.
  • Change the applications triangle color.

Nice! A non-hacky, non-costy (sorry) way to change the doc background. Thanks for the info!

Tell me, though: what is that 7th app shown in your doc? It intrigues me because the icon looks very much like a computer I used to work with waaaaaay back in the early 1980s called the NEC APC.

You can also make hidden applications in the dock transparent by following this guide:
