Trash Widget

The Trash widget adds trash functionality to any dock.

It can use ExtraDock’s own virtual trash or the native macOS Trash.

Modes

Two modes are available:

  • ExtraDock Trash — A virtual trash managed by ExtraDock

  • Native Trash — Uses the system macOS Trash

ExtraDock Trash

Drag files onto the widget to move them into ExtraDock Trash. Click the widget to browse trashed items.

Native Trash

Native Trash works with the system Trash. macOS may ask for file permissions depending on where the files come from.

Settings

You can configure:

  • Show badge — Show the item count

  • Badge color — Change the badge color

  • Icon style — Auto, full, or empty

  • Confirm empty — Ask before emptying trash

  • Confirm protected — Ask before removing protected items
