title="MacOS">macOS</a> operating systems, used as a secondary desktop for hosting mini-applications known as <a href="/wiki/Widget_engine" class="mw-redirect" title="Widget engine">widgets</a>. These are intended to be simple applications that do not take time to launch. Dashboard applications supplied with macOS included a stock ticker, weather report, calculator, and notepad; while users could create or download their own. </p><p>Before <a href="/wiki/Mac_OS_X_10.7_Lion" class="mw-redirect" title="Mac OS X 10.7 Lion">Mac OS X 10.7 Lion</a>, when Dashboard is activated, the user's desktop is dimmed and widgets appear in the foreground. Like application windows, they can be moved around, rearranged, deleted, and recreated (so that more than one of the same Widget is open at the same time, possibly with different settings). New widgets can be opened, via an icon bar on the bottom of the layer, loading a list of available apps similar to the iOS home screen or the macOS <a href="/wiki/Launchpad_(macOS)" class="mw-redirect" title="Launchpad (macOS)">Launchpad</a>. After loading, the widget is ready for use. </p><p>Dashboard was first introduced in <a href="/wiki/Mac_OS_X_10.4_Tiger" class="mw-redirect" title="Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger">Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-auto_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-auto-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It can be activated as an application, from the Dock, Launchpad, or Spotlight. It can also be accessed by a <a href="/wiki/Apple_Keyboard#Usage_of_function_keys" class="mw-redirect" title="Apple Keyboard">dashboard key</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Alternatively, the user can choose to make Dashboard open on moving the cursor into a preassigned hot corner or keyboard shortcut. Starting with Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, the Dashboard can be configured as a <a href="/wiki/Spaces_(software)" title="Spaces (software)">space</a>, accessed by swiping four fingers to the right from the Desktops either side of it. </p><p>From <a href="/wiki/OS_X_10.10_Yosemite" class="mw-redirect" title="OS X 10.10 Yosemite">OS X 10.10 Yosemite</a> onward, the Dashboard was disabled by default, with the <a href="/wiki/Notification_Center" title="Notification Center">Notification Center</a> becoming the primary method of displaying widgets. As of <a href="/wiki/MacOS_10.15_Catalina" class="mw-redirect" title="MacOS 10.15 Catalina">macOS 10.15 Catalina</a>, Dashboard has been removed from macOS.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Widget support is reintroduced in <a href="/wiki/MacOS_Sonoma" title="MacOS Sonoma">macOS Sonoma</a>, released in 2023.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In macOS Sonoma, Apple has integrated the Dashboard with the Desktop.

Other widgets, like Wikipedia, grab the contents of web pages and display them within Dashboard. Some widgets can also serve as games, using <a href="/wiki/Adobe_Flash" title="Adobe Flash">Adobe Flash</a> (or another multimedia authoring program) to create games just as if they were in a web browser.

For instance, a 3-D flip effect is used to simulate the widget flipping around; by clicking on a small <i>i</i> icon in the right bottom corner, the user can change the preferences on the reverse side; other effects include crossfading and scaling from icon to body (when opening widgets), a "spin-cycle effect" when a widget is focused and the user presses Command-R or a suck-in effect when they are closed. On sufficiently powered Macs, widgets will produce a ripple effect when they are opened, like a leaf falling onto water.
