Docks and Positions

Ledge can keep up to eight Dock presets at the same time. Each preset is independent.

Preset controls

At the top of Ledge settings:

  • Click a Dock name to edit that preset.
  • Edit Preset name to rename it.
  • Use the copy button to duplicate the selected Dock.
  • Use the trash button to delete it. Ledge always keeps at least one Dock.
  • Use + to create another Dock.

Duplicating a Dock copies its items and settings, but Ledge assigns it another free position.

One Dock per position

The eight available positions are Left, Right, Top, Bottom, Top left, Top right, Bottom left, and Bottom right.

A position can belong to only one Dock preset. Once a position is used, it disappears from the Position dropdown of the other Docks.

Disabled Docks still reserve their position. If a position seems to be missing, check every preset, including disabled ones. Delete the old preset or move it to another position to release that position.

Corner positions

Corner Docks arrange their items in a 90-degree L shape. Their auto-hide trigger is drawn as two rounded perpendicular pill arms rather than a square block.

Where a Dock is anchored

Top, Bottom, Top left, and Top right follow the active view's content area. This helps them stay aligned with the note, Base, canvas, or other active view when the workspace is split.

Left/right and the lower corner positions use the surrounding workspace pane geometry.

Edge offset

Layout → Edge offset moves the Dock inward from its selected edge without changing the position type. Use a small offset when the Dock overlaps another theme element or when you want more space from the pane edge.
