[QUOTE="Exodist, post: 1618731, member: 284358"] In 10.8 Mountain Lion the dock stayed fixed on what ever monitor you designated it to. In 10.9 Mavericks it will now follow you to the next monitor if it detects your curser has touched the bottom of the screen on that monitor. If your someone who likes to see their dock, but keep it on one screen. Yea this could be annoying as there is no way to make it stay on your primary display. Another reason this can be annoying is that if your dock pops up on say a display you like to run apps on maximized but not full full screen, it makes you app have a gap at the bottom of the screen. Another annoyance. Now I got around this by just setting my dock to auto hide. So its hidden and no matter what screen I am on I just tap the bottom and my dock comes up, choose the app I want to run and it re hides its self and doesn't inter fear with my application running. I also have a logitech gaming mouse, so I have a button assigned to turn on and off autohide for my dock. Setting the dock to Left or Right is very annoying. I cussed and raised **** when the morons at Ubuntu made the dock fixed to the left of my screen. When you got two wide screen displays, having to go way over to one screen and back to the other is a lot of extra wasted time. That and I have OCD so everything has to be balanced or it drives me to tears.. IMHO Apple needs to give the user the option to change the way their displays are handled when using extended desktop. They simply force the user to use them is if they are two displays and not give them the option to use them as one large display. Apple does great at pushing tech one the desktop to new levels, but has a tendency to completely fail at some basic task. [/QUOTE]
