## v0.4.0 — Side Dock vertical popover, right-click dismiss, and Liquid Glass

September 18, 2026

- Left and right Docks now show a compact vertical hover list, positioned against the visible Dock and icon bounds so the popover is not pushed back onto the Dock.
- Right-clicking or Control-clicking a Dock icon immediately closes the hover popover so it does not overlap the system Dock menu.
- On macOS 26 or later, General settings can enable native Liquid Glass for the hover popover (off by default). On macOS 27, clarity and blur follow the Liquid Glass slider in Appearance settings; macOS 26 uses the system standard glass.
- Corrected side padding of the hover popover on a bottom Dock.
- Fixed Dock orientation and auto-hide detection so left and right Docks are no longer misread as bottom.
- Users on 0.3.2 can upgrade with Check for Updates; manual installation is available as a signed and notarized DMG or ZIP.
