Orientation

Each dock can be laid out horizontally or vertically, independent of other docks.

Switching orientation

  • Right-click the dock → OrientationHorizontal or Vertical

  • Management windowPropertiesPositionOrientation

Horizontal

Icons are arranged left to right. This is the default for new docks and works well along the top or bottom of a screen.

Vertical

Icons are arranged top to bottom. Works well pinned to the left or right edge of a screen, or as a sidebar-style launcher.

All features — collapse, auto-hide, widgets, effects — adapt automatically to the dock’s orientation.
