BeyDock is built on Liquid Glass from macOS 26. Its window is a single piece of glass, so your desktop shows through softly behind it. The app uses a dark appearance.
Liquid Glass
Open Settings › Appearance. In the Liquid Glass section, a live preview shows how the glass looks over a bright background. Drag the glass slider between its two ends:
- Clear lets more of the desktop show through.
- Tinted darkens the glass so text stays readable over bright windows.
If you move the slider away from the default, a Reset button appears. The change applies everywhere immediately.
Accent color
In the Theme section, choose an Accent color: System, Blue, Purple, Pink, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Graphite or Custom. Choosing Custom shows a color picker next to the swatches.
- System follows the accent color you set in macOS and keeps primary buttons white.
- Other colors also tint primary buttons such as Allow and Send.
Zoom the conversation
In the View menu:
- Zoom In is ⌘+.
- Zoom Out is ⌘-.
- Actual Size is ⌘0.
Zoom changes the text size in the conversation and in the Terminal pane.
Panels and sidebar
- Toggle Sidebar is ⌘\.
- The side panels open from the View menu: Details (⌥⌘I), Background Tasks (⌥⌘B), Changes (⌥⌘D), Files (⌥⌘E), Terminal (⌥⌘T) and Browser (⌥⌘P).
The View options button in the sidebar controls the session list:
- Status and Device filters.
- Group by and Sort by.
- Sessions per group: 3, 5, 10 or All.
- Show empty groups.
- Show PR status, which shows the state of each session's pull request.
Use the search field above the list to find a session by title or folder.
Motion
Every change in the interface animates. If you turn on Reduce Motion in System Settings, BeyDock replaces sliding and scaling with a short fade.
