What's new

  • New app icon in the macOS 26 Liquid Glass style: blue in light mode, graphite in dark mode, and it follows the tinted and clear icon styles. Earlier macOS versions get the light one.
  • README links the new site, https://xkorfun.github.io.

No behaviour changes.

Install / upgrade

brew install --cask esteban-eg-kim/tap/dockpin   # new install
brew upgrade --cask dockpin                       # from 0.1.0

Or download dockpin-0.1.1.zip below, unzip, and move dockpin.app to Applications.

Signed with the same "dockpin" certificate as 0.1.0, so the Accessibility permission carries over.

v0.1.0
e48a3a1

First release. dockpin keeps the macOS Dock on one display: the Dock edges of your other displays stop pulling it over, and when macOS moves it by itself (displays waking from sleep) dockpin brings it back.

Install

brew install --cask esteban-eg-kim/tap/dockpin

Or download dockpin-0.1.0.zip, move dockpin.app to /Applications, and run once:

xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/dockpin.app

Signed with dockpin's own certificate but not notarized, hence the xattr line. Needs one permission: Accessibility (macOS 27: Device Control and Data Access). Universal (Apple silicon + Intel), macOS 13+, tested on macOS 27.

What's in it

  • First version: pin the Dock to one display from the menu bar.
  • Picking a display moves the Dock there right away; so does plugging the pinned
    display back in.
  • Guards only the outer part of each other display's Dock edge; edges shared with a
    neighbouring display stay open.
  • Hold Option to move the Dock on purpose.
  • Follows the Dock's side (bottom, left, right) and display changes automatically.
  • Open at Login.
  • Watches where the Dock is and fetches it back when macOS moves it by itself
    (displays waking from sleep), except after an Option move; also guards drags.
  • Never moves the pointer on the lock screen or with the displays asleep; checks
    a second after unlock. Clears the Dock's hover magnification after a move.
  • Finds the Dock by asking it (works with auto-hide), falling back to the screen layout.
  • "If It's Unplugged": a fallback display while the pinned one is disconnected.
  • Logs what it sees and does (/usr/bin/log stream --predicate 'subsystem == "io.github.esteban-eg-kim.dockpin"').
  • Manual in English and Korean, screenshots and a demo video
    (docs/manual.md, docs/media/make.sh regenerates the media).
