How can I prevent this on MacOS Sequoia 15.5?: Every program and image I open leaves an icon in the Dock, and they keep piling up. I heard I can press Cmd+Q to close image icons, but that doesn’t work for regular apps. I mean the right side in this image :
(The 7 icons here, that I don't want, the right side of the seperator) enter image description here I am fine with everything to the left of the divider. Is there a way to disable this behavior on the right side of the bar and/or minimize having open documents changing the dock by adding thumbnails?
