Accessing smartLink

smartLink can be run as a floating- and a dockable window.

Floating smartLinker

To launch the floating window navigate to your menubar and execute cragl -> smartLink -> smartLinker. Alternatively you can use the shortcut Ctrl+L (Linux, Windows) or cmd+L (Mac). In the Shortcut Editor you can also change the shortcut to your needs.

By default, the smartLinker will be placed under your cursor. In the settings you can change this behavior to launch it always in the middle of your screen.

Dockable smartlinker

smartLink offers a dockable window so that you can integrate it into your layout which can then be saved. This will make the smartLinker permanently visible for you. To create a dockable smartLinker, navigate to one of your pane menus and choose Window -> Custom -> smartLinker.
