Top docks (2) combined into one

Hello and thank you for this question,

Is it maybe possible to share a link here to a screenshot of your desktop?
Which version of the dock are you using? How did you install it and on which distribution?

This is strange that the configuration of the dock has changed without any reason. Is it after an update of the dock? Or other packages? Is it after a reboot?

Sorry, Matthieu, I should have included most of that information as a
matter of course.

I am using version 3.3.1 on Ubuntu 13.10. As far as I know, the
installation method was standard. A screen shot is attached.

At the time it happened, I was trying to open Nautilus, using the icon,
and I think I tested a double click to see if it would go directly to an
open window. At that point the two top docks migrated to the middle and
joined up. This did not happen after an update or restart, and no other
packages had been added.

Thank you for trying to help.

Regards

James

No problem.

Sorry but it seems it's not possible to upload files here. Can you upload it to a server (by using Drop to Share applet or directly upload it on imgur.com, uppix.com, etc.) and share a link here?

This is strange! Maybe the screenshot will help.

@fabounet: any idea? :-)

Hi Matthieu:

I've uploaded it to Fropbox and sent a link. Remember, when the two top
docks merged, they landed in the middle. I moved them to the right,
which is where I expect the icons I use most to be.

Hi James,
Thank you but where is this link? :-)

I don't remember the exact address, but it was something like:

question242981@something or other, presumably answers.launchpad.net

Thank you for this screenshot.
I guess a separator had been removed (by dragging and dropping it out of thé dock). You can do a right click where you want to add a separator in this dock / Cairo-Dock / Add / Separator). You can also select the option on the Cairo-Dock menu to avoid moving icons.

Thank you, Matthieu. That solved it.
