What dialabrain said.


But I have to ask: WHY?

Are you clicking the Launchpad icon in the Dock to lauch Launchpad, to launch an application????

That is convoluted. Why not one of these:

1) Click the Dock icon of the application you want; or

2) Press F4 or whatever key in your keyboard starts Launchpad?


(FWIW, Launchpad and the Dock are two features of macOS that I never use - Spotlight is so much faster to launch applications)
