Start TextPad with tool window closed?

Post by sralpert »

I don't use the tool window very much but would like to ALWAYS start Textpad with it closed - even if I left it open the last time I used it. Any ideas?

I have the same issue. Everytime I open TextPad, the Tool Output window and Search Results window are open at the bottom. If I close both windows, exit the application, & restart the application - both windows are open again.

I think I figured it out.

Configure -> Preferences -> View -> Dockable log windows -> uncheck both options

a wrinkle

The only wrinkle is that the search results and tool window now appear in the window list and not automatically docked at the bottom. Kind of like "Whack-a-mole!"
