# Configuration Guide
|
|
|
|
Modus is configured via TOML files in the `config/` directory, plus a graphical Settings window.
|
|
|
|
## File Overview
|
|
|
|
| File | Purpose | Reload |
|
|
|------|---------|--------|
|
|
| `config.toml` | Main settings (features, widgets, paths) | Restart |
|
|
| `mods.toml` | Custom panel buttons (menus, shell commands) | Instant |
|
|
| `dock.toml` | Pinned dock apps | Restart |
|
|
|
|
## Settings Window
|
|
|
|
Press `Super + I` to open the Settings window. It provides a GUI for most `config.toml` options organized into tabs:
|
|
|
|
- **General**: Debug mode, weather location, keyboard layouts, night light, switcher preview
|
|
- **Dock**: Enable/disable, auto-hide, icon size, special workspace apps
|
|
- **Panel**: All panel widgets (global menu, systray, control center, etc.), wallpapers directory
|
|
- **Notifications**: Timeout, ignored apps, limited history apps
|
|
|
|
Changes save to `config.toml` immediately. Some settings require a restart.
|
|
|
|
You can also toggle settings from the terminal:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
fabric-cli exec modus "settings.toggle()"
|
|
```
|
|

## `config.toml` (Main Settings)
