Make List view Stacks work like Grid view Stacks

[ Mac OS :: (Snow) Leopard ] by Koos @ 19.09.2009 08:43 CET

There's a new hidden preference available for List view Stacks in the Dock in 10.6. Open Terminal and run these two commands:

defaults write com.apple.dock use-new-list-stack -bool YES

killall Dock

This will make the List view behave like the Grid view, only with all items arranged in one vertical list, with names to the right.

Sadly, the list is in descending sort order for dates, so if I choose to sort by Date Added, the items in my stack added most recently are at the very top, which, IMHO, makes it half-baked. This is perfect for a regular folder, but the exact opposite of what is needed for a Dock stack. Otherwise nice looking.
