When we run an java GUI application in windows or Mac, it appears in taskbar or dock as shown below. In Windows Taskbar: <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/3gO8f.jpg" alt="enter image description here"> In Mac Dock: <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/j505A.png" alt="enter image description here"> I was wondering if there is a way to hide or remove the application from taskbar/dock. I mean the GUI application will run but it will not be shown in dock/taskbar. Thanks in advance.

Try to replace JFrame with JDialog.

This appears to be platform dependent. On Mac OS X, set the <code>Info.plist</code> property <code>LSUIElement</code> to 1.
