What's up, dock

I thought there was supposed to be a new docking app in the Sense update. If so, can someone tell me how to access it? I couldn't find it anywhere amongst the appearance settings.

Another dock question: In ADW (purchased, not free), there's a "hidden dock" that's so well hidden I can't find it. I see that I can give it a dock theme, but I haven't found it on the desktop anywhere. (This is pre-GB.)

thanx
 
the docking app is in fact a hidden app. I always use apps organizer(market app) to organize my apps into categories and it shows up in the apps organizer when i select it for a label. However i just looked in the app drawer and it does not show itself. Its interesting how it changes the layout of the screen but its kinda confusing for me.
i dont know why it would hide itself from the app drawer. hope this helps
 
it is NOT a hidden app, showed right up in my Apps section, and now it is on my launcherpro dock.
 
I found it in the application list...but I still don't know what it does. I have a dock for the phone but I cannot initiate any kind of 'dock mode' in my book.

It's definitely a hidden app if you are using the stock app drawer. You have to search for Dock Mode to get to it.

not true, i use LPP and switched back to stock sense and found it right away listed in my applications list. switched back to LPP and added it to my row of apps.
 
Some people have had it showing up in their app list, others not. I am one who has it showing in my app list.
 
It's basically nothing more than an app that opens up when you put it in a specially designed dock. Shows some elements (weather, time, calendar events). You could almost think of it as a desktop clock on steroids.

Are you using or have every used anything but the stock launcher? I does not show up in my app drawer but it does show up under Manager Applications.

Could be that LLP modifies something that Sense uses to index apps? You are talking about the app drawer and not anything else, right?
 
Mine is not in the app drawer but I do see it in settings under application manager...however, I cannot fugure out how to open it from there. I've also looked for widgets/apps/shortcuts to access it. No dice.

Does it function like the app 'Bedside'?

No, I was referring to finding the app in the app list, i switched back to stock sense (using home switcher) and found the app in my list, opened it, said, "yay"... closed it. switched back to LPP and added it to my Row on the scrollable app list on the dock
