You can drag it to make it shorter. The height is determined by the size of the largest icon on the dock and the number of lines of text (if there are any).

Cool, But Im guessing its not possiable to change the shape of the bar then? Ok could you simply just use an transparent image to make it look like the shape has changed?

You can't make AmiDock transparent on OS3.x, only in the OS4 version. You can, however, do what I did and take a slice of your wallpaper where your dock would be, then use that as the texture of the dock. This would give the effect of the dock being transparent. You would still get a border round the dock though.

If you want a totally transparent dock, you may need to look for a different programme.
