After some head scratching I finally have a miggy running on my MacBook Pro :-D
It's awesome.
I am running it in the AF 3.9 workbench.
When I first boot it comes up in a 800x600 window and the dock is right there on the bottom.
However when I change the size to my native 1680x1050 in ScreenMode, the dock disappears.
And I can't find a dock icon or any other sign of it anywhere.
Any ideas?
Many thanks.
Aloha...Ray

Since the 3.9 version of Amidock is a commodity, you could try running the commodities "exchange" program to see if it is hidden or running on the native Amiga resolution screen that has been hidden by opening a new Picasso 96-compatible screen or something like that.
Anyway, the dock is not as useful as you might think coming from a Mac background. I used ToolsDaemon to add menus to the top of the Workbench screen and an AREXX script that would translate ToolsDaemon preferences files into WB 3.9 AREXX commands. If I really needed a command, I could give it a keyboard shortcut in the menu.

Found it. :-)
many thanks.
I do use my Mac dock for launching apps and opening recent and often used files. So I will be interested to see how useful this is.
Right now I'm just finding my way around the whole AF / OS3.9 environment.
Aloha!
