Notice a white’ish square on the lefthand side of the menu? I couldn’t live with that in the long run. I use the Aqua desktop picture and I see it clearly.I see it in the video above too because it has a dark background.

I’ll wait for another solution, like that app that was linked to in the first comment. The author says he will look into the color profile issue for the next release. Also with this Quay I get no smooth animations upon opening a menu. It just pops up. Not somethign I expect with Core Animation in Leopard and what have you ;P

Great video Mike.

I installed Quay a while back and couldn’t live without it. My only gripe is that the other Stacks bring up their context menus with a control-click while Quay’s uses option-click, but it’s a minor complaint. I’m a bit surprised Apple didn’t include this type of Stacks functionality to begin with.

Ugh. HierarchicalDock is horrible. Not only does it not open alias folders, but it also changes your monitor’s color profile while it’s open – particularly annoying.

I know the developer is working on bug fixes, but why put up with them to begin with.

I prefer the freeware utility HierarchicalDock – http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/26284/hierarchicaldock
