Document selector & clip library

Post by talleyrand »

I admit it, I lack some toolbar-fu here.

This is what TP 4.7 looked like for me, the Document selector stacked on top of the clib library. For the way I work, it was pretty handy.

Is there a way to get TP5 to behave like this now and what do I need to do to get there?

You can create the same look as TextPad 4.

First of all close the Explorer tab from the View menu, if it is enabled. Next, click on the Document selector tab and then double click the Clip library tab to undock it. Drag it to the centre and let go. Drag it back towards the left hand side, and when you see the group of 5 arrows revealed, position the cursor on the down arrow and release. Viola!

Fantastic! It shouldn't make me so happy but it does.

BBadmin,

Thank you for your very timely support. I have been trying to get my TextPad 5.03 to go back to the docked document selector and clip library for three weeks. Getting over eager with the mouse undocked both tools and I was wasting time trying to work the old way.

Thanks again for your support.
