<sect1 id='docked_windows'><title>Docked windows</title>
<para>The &kappname; interface is composed of a number of smaller docked windows.
Manipulating these windows can be difficult at first. To focus a particular
window in the &kappname; interface, simply click within it.</para>
<para>Each docked window has a small grip bar along the top. It contains a dock/undock button
resembling an arrow at its right end and a close button resembling the
letter X. It looks like this:

<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>Clicking the close button on a docked window will remove it from the interface.
To bring it back, select its name in the <guimenu>Window</guimenu>
menu.</para></listitem>
<listitem>
<para>To resize docked windows, drag the border between the
windows.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>To re-arrange the docked windows, drag a window by its grip bar
over to the desired position. While dragging, a small box
outline will appear to indicate the position the window
will take when you end the drag.
</para>
<para>If you wish to stack two windows and use tabs to choose between them,
drag the window to the very center of the other window with which you wish
to stack.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>To undock a window, either click the dock/undock button in its top right corner, or
double-click on the window's grip bar.</para>
<para>Double-clicking again or clicking on the dock/undock button, should return the window to its original
position.</para>
<para>You can also dock an undocked window by dragging its grip bar back to a
point within the general interface, just as if you were rearranging an already
docked window.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>The file view window cannot be undocked or moved, but by moving other windows
around, it can itself be shifted about.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>While dragging a window, press the <keycap>Escape</keycap> key to cancel the operation. To reset
the docked windows to the default &kappname; layout, use
