How to switch an account's chain?

In PolkaGate, each account is primarily associated with a single chain, even though we display the balances on different selected chains based on user preferences. However, during transactions, you are interacting with a specific chain, even when performing cross-chain actions.

In the PolkaGate extension, you can set the chain an account is currently associated with in three ways:

Extension Mode: Click on the three vertical dots in front of each account to access the account settings menu, where you can set the account's chain.

Full-Screen Mode:

  • Header Selection: In the account details view, the current chain is displayed at the top right side of the header. By clicking on it, you can view and select from a list of available chains. Asset-Based Selection: If you have assets on different chains, clicking on an asset will automatically set the account's chain to that asset's chain.
