DragThing Help | Basics | Resizing Docks

To resize a dock to create new empty squares, click at any edge of the dock window (the cursor will change to show the right place) and drag the window out to the required size. You can even resize the docks from the top and left hand side. Docks can be any size with multiple rows and columns.

If you drag in the opposite direction to make the dock smaller, empty spaces in the dock will be removed and items rearranged to fit the available space. If any layer of the dock cannot be made any smaller you won't be able to reduce the overall size of the dock any further without removing items.

You can change the size of the icons displayed in each dock using the items in the View menu. If you have lots of documents with the same icon choose the Show Names option, or select them and change their colour using the Label menu.

You can also rotate the docks from vertical to horizontal and back using the Rotate Dock item in the Window menu. The Clean Up menu item gets rid of any empty spaces throughout the dock and moves all the items along.
