How to increase the number of applications shown in the Recent Applications stack on the Dock I've enabled the 'Recent Applications' stack to appear in my Dock:
defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-others -array-add '{ &quot;tile-data&quot; = { &quot;list-type&quot; = 1; }; &quot;tile-type&quot; = &quot;recents-tile&quot;; }'

Is there any way to increase the number from 10 Recent Applications to 15, or preferably, omit specific applications from being in it?
Going to System Preferences > General > drop down box for recent documents, apps, and servers should do the trick.
