It is a two finger tap near the bottom edge for the dock and the top edge for the menu. I have found that it is best to tap as close to the middle so that the gesture is not interpreted as a wright or left edge tap.
It takes a while to get the hang of it but is very nice once you get comfortable with the gestures.
