Mac 101: Quickly resize the Dock

#8 -- Andrew, you may have missed the introductory post for the 'Mac 101' series. These posts are intended as tips for novice users; since you're clearly a grizzled veteran, you should probably skip them.

jesus christ, why bother making a post about this, do you think we're all idiots?

resizing the dock, bloody hard stuff that is!
there's so many good articles on this blog, but then also so many posts about easy things, like the article now on the front page "newsflash: os x uses drag and drop!!" informative reporting there.

Why has nobody mentioned this?

It snaps to 48x48 too, plus a few sizes between 64 and 128.

I second what Evan said. Holding down option while resizing will give non-interpolated icon sizes. Specifically, 16x16, 32x32, 64x64, and 128x128. At these sizes, the icons are their most crisp.

Sorry guys! The embedded video is now an optional link.

wow, now that stalls safari, im not liking 101 already

You can also hold down the option key while resizing to get the optimum sizes.

Maybe the videos could not be self-starting / auto-loading?

The TUAW blog is heavy enough as it is.
