Stacks

[Kevin Callahan]

I agree, I was hoping to just drag a collection of items into a  
stack.  A folder of aliases to those items is the next best thing.  I  
don't use stacks, though.  I don't like the fact a stacks icon in the  
dock changes depending on the contents of the stack.  I made some  
smart folders in Finder and tossed them in the dock thinking they'd  
open in a Fan or a Grid, but smart folders stuffed in the dock just  
open in a Finder window.

What are people's thoughts about the current implementation of stacks  
and how it be improved?

"Well, right up until the end of the Leopard development cycle, you  
could do just that. Then Apple went and made a change to how stacks  
work. A change, in my opinion, for the worse. You can no longer make a  
stack by simply dragging a selection of items to the dock. Now stacks  
can only be made by dragging a folder of items to the dock. "
