Any news about this ticket ? Still a big pain point for 8.1... ---

This problem is really annoying. We have sold a quality product and services to our customers and we do not know how to explain that we are unable to make the docks work correctly. 💃🏼 🙉 2 years of waiting is already too much. 📅 @cmallonee, please, can you step up to resolve this bug as soon as possible? 🫵 😦 ---

I recently did some Js injection around docks. I suppose it shouldnt be to hard to change it to change the dock sizes through some css class. I dont have time this week though, and im taking a holiday soon so yh. Ping me in a month xd Linking the post here incase someone else dables in JS/css > [@Close a dock when opening another - detect when a dock is open?](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/close-a-dock-when-opening-another-detect-when-a-dock-is-open/96661/26): > > oke i found a way to get all id's, gimme a sec to write it in a script mage@mazeyrat that should do it, found a way to use perspectives client functions.

I have two Docks that I minimize. When I hide them, I need both handles to go away. Just discovered this post. Tried running alterDock on two docks at the same time. ---

Unfortunately **not** and there is no evidence that inductive automation is working on solving that bug. 🫵🧐 My customers 😠 😮 and I 😬 are still annoyed and this is not satisfying ! ---

Hey everyone, this issue has been resolved and you will now be able to modify multiple docks using system.perspective.alterDock without the last changes being reverted in 8.3.3. ---
