Hi all, I have done very well in adjusting to the Mac by remembering the advice that I was reading everywhere before I made the switch. Don't assume that anything will work like it does on windows. Now, nearly two months into this, there is only one windows behavior that I really miss.
There are some applications that I would like to have running in the background, but don't necessarily want their windows open unless I need them. Let's take adium and skype as one type of example. I want to be available, but unless I have an incoming call or instant message, I want them to stay out of my way. If I am using a few applications, I don't want to have to command+tab past things that are currently irrelevant. I've finally stopped adium and skype from loading on login because they have become a nuisance. I was hoping that you could send applications to the doc, similar to the system tray in windows. I see a hide option in the menu of most applications, but this seems to be more similar to minimizing an application in windows since command-tab brings it right back up again. Am I correct that there is no way to do something like this, or am I just missing it?
