General Settings#

Open Settings → General to choose how DockFlow launches, appears, and feels across the app.

Startup#

  • Launch at login — Start DockFlow automatically when you log in to your Mac. Off by default.
  • Show main window on launch — Open the main DockFlow window when you open the app. It stays closed when DockFlow starts at login. Off by default when DockFlow lives only in the menu bar, and on by default when it shows a Dock icon.
  • Startup preset — Activate a preset when DockFlow starts, including at login. The default is None. If the preset uses ExtraDock, DockFlow waits for ExtraDock to be ready.

If the startup preset was deleted, the picker shows Unavailable preset. Choose another preset or None. Until then, DockFlow keeps your current layout at startup.

Appearance#

  • Theme — Change the overall look of DockFlow's windows. The built-in themes are Default, Neon, Ocean, Liquid Glass, Christmas, and Halloween. Color swatches preview the current theme.
  • Menu bar icon — Pick the icon style shown in the menu bar: Monochrome (default), Light, Dark, White, Simple Black, or Simple White.

App presence#

Show DockFlow In chooses where DockFlow appears in macOS:

  • Menu Bar Only — The default
  • Dock Only — Shows a Dock icon and hides the menu bar icon
  • Menu Bar and Dock — Shows both

See Menu Bar and Dock Menu for what each menu contains.
