MacUtil is a tool that will allow us to customize our Mac's dock as we wish, as well as other options. The application is divided into 4 sections that customize those aspects of OSX.

It is a free application that can be downloaded from its developer's page. Once the application is downloaded, we move it to the applications folder since it is a self-installed folder since, as we have commented in previous post, this is one of the ways in which the applications that we install in are prepared. our Mac.

When we execute it, a window will appear with four possible tabs: Dock, Finder, User Interface and Miscellaneous. Each of these tabs is full of options that we can configure with our tastes or whatever we need. We can see options of all kinds.

La first tab is dedicated to the dock, and there are a few options such as operating the dock in 2D or 3D, adding a stack with recently used apps, adding separators to organize the dock, resizing, etc.
