Shaun’s Notes

In System Preferences there are only two minimizing effects available: Genie Effect and Scale Effect.

There is another hidden effect called “suck”.

To enable the suck effect perform the following:

1. Open Terminal.
2. Type the following into terminal
   defaults write com.apple.dock mineffect -string suck;killall Dock
3. Hit enter

Now when you minimize a window it will look as though the Dock is sucking in the window.

Hint : To see this sucking effect in slow motion hold down the Shift key while minimizing.
