    Is there a way to save the Docked items as in a sense a custom toolbar. Sorry for what is probably a stupid question, I am a complete newbee................

    You can "iconify" docking dialogs to the side, using the little arrow by the x in the upper right.

    If you would like something different, please describe in greater detail.

    I do that but when I close the application and restart, there are no icons in the dock. Is there not a way to dock a handful of icons and then save them so that every time you start Inkscape that the dock contains these icons.Β  ThanksΒ

    It doesn't work as expected.Β  :(

    There is a similar config where the docks can be "tabbed" on the right, so they are handy. I have saved a template called "Docks" and saved it with the checkbox ticked. It works in conjunction with preferences settings to save window geometry with the document.

    This config also has a small bug where they are not seen at launch, but appear when the window is resized.Β https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1917
