how to permanently dock style window on left of page

[FloridaBill]

When I work on my novels, I like the style window to be docked on the left side of the page. But in the latest version of LibreOffice Writer, it always goes back to the right side of the page when I reopen the document.

Surely there is a way to permanently dock the style window to the left side of the screen.

I just came across this in another thread and tried it - it worked

Hi JRachel973

I just tried dragging mine across to the left. It did not complain & docked at the left. Have you tried that yet?

1. Click on the Spanner (title bar should now say `Properties’)
2. Click ‘n’ hold with the mouse in the Properties title-bar
3. Drag to the left until it docks with the LHS margin.

Probably best to do all of above in an empty window (no active document).
