I set a reminder to comment here! I am one of the posters on that KM post. Thanks for the reply. Hopefully, this gets addressed in 11.1. I liked having sys pref. staying in the backround.

Ah perfect. Just what I was looking for. Exactly the same issue for me. Used to work in Catalina (under General), and now I get the same error "Can't Get Anchor "Main" of pane id "com.apple.preference.dock".

I'll keep an eye here to see when it gets resolved!

Thanks for this

Works now
