Has anybody seen that before? The dock just stayed in the middle of the screen, following a resolution change. It was perfectly functionnal, as shown in the pictures. It was even sliding down if the 'hiding' was enabled.

Funny stuff. Changing the 'position' of the dock in the preference sent it back where it was supposed to be.

LOL, that looks awesome. And although I never had that with OS X, I had it with the little bar in OS 9 when changing resolutions.

I had that happen too! when I quit (or mb it unexpectedly quit) WC3! I changed my screen resolution down and then back to normal to fix it

Seems the dock was not "told" what res it was now running in.

Weird. Well I haven't noticed that one, but I do experience little leftover "crumbs" from apps that I've opened and then quit (i.e., the black triangle below the app leaves a couple of pixels sometimes when I quit it).
Odd.
