I can't seem to find out how. I want it at the top of my screen. And it is nowhere in the preference option.

You need to launch gconf-editor from Alt-F2. Navigate to
/apps/gnome-do/preferences/Docky/Utilities/DockPreferences and locate the Orientation setting in the righthand pane. Change bottom to the value you prefer.

Which version of gnome-do are you running? I'm running 0.8.2. I can't remember which version added in the ability to change the dock orientation. Originally, you couldn't move it. The bottom was the only position available.

Wait. Upgraded to 0.8.2 and now you can change it via Gnome-Do GUI.
Great work Gnome-Do!
SOLVED.

I get:


/apps/gnome-do/preferences/Docky/Utilities/DockPreferencesbash: /apps/gnome-do/preferences/Docky/Utilities/DockPreferences: No such file or directory


:(
