Hey all,
I have a couple of questions about using the dock in 10.5, especially the stacks feature.
1) The "downloads" stack: The problem I am having is that when a new item I've downloaded gets added to my downloads folder, it doesnt show up in my downloads stack. I have to manually click the stack, then click "98 [ex.] more in Finder" and then find the item in there. This handicap removes any real point of having a stack feature in the first place.
On a related annoyance, is there no way in the Finder to organized files from "most recent" to "least recent" - because "date modified" is not used for this function at all. You'd think Mac OS would be able to recognize that the folder I am browsing is called "downloads" and it would have the sense to show me items that I most recently downloaded.
2) Changing the stacks icon: how does my mac assign the icon of the stack. Is it the most recently added item that gets designated? Is there a way to set a permanent icon?
