dock changes in catalina

Somewhere along the line, a function/app was added to my iMac dock that, when clicked, swiped the desktop right and produced a new screen, where apps like a dictionary, weather report, flight status, stock report, etc. could be placed for quick reference. With Catalina, this app has disappeared. Can I still get it (and does anyone remember the name)?

Missing control center icon MacOS catalina 10.15.7 I am unable to find the Control Center Icon on my Mac. It is missing from the top Menu bar. I am also missing the "Dock and Menu Bar" option from System Preferences. All I have is a "Dock" option but this does not have anything related to Control Center in it, it only has options for the dock.

Cannot remove any applications from dock On my workplace iMac, running macOS Monterey 12.0.1, I cannot remove any applications from the dock—even if the application is closed. This means I'm stuck with a distracting array of 15+ icons, including mail and calendar applications I do not use. I've tried all the advice I've found online: When I right click an icon, "remove from dock" does not appear When I drag the apps up to the desktop, nothing happens When I drag an app to the trash, "Remove from dock" appears before I release, but the app returns to its original place on the dock In Terminal, I tried the killall Dock command, and nothing happened If I move com.apple.dock.plist to the desktop, the original remains in the Preferences folder Is there anything else to try? I wonder if this is a side effect of my employer's security settings.

I think you’re talking about Dashboard. It doesn’t exist anymore on Catalina
