Document Selector AND Clip Library BOTH to HOLD their spot

Post by TomLacko »

Using TextPad version 8.5.1. - How do I get Document Selector AND Clip Library to BOTH be on the left side and both HOLD their position? This is how is was back on Version 4.7.x. The Document Selector is there but it can't be resized - it's the size of the document frame, as far as height goes. I can open Clip Library and move it to the left side to share real estate with Document Selector but if/when I resize the document I have to keep moving the Clip Library window around to reposition.

If you drag the Clip Library over the Document Selector, a cross-shaped cluster of five icons will pop-up. If you point to the top or bottom of those icons while dragging, the top or bottom half of the Document Selector will be shaded blue:

If you release the mouse button, the Clip Library will occupy the space that was previously shaded and should stay in that position even after resizing the main window:

Does that help?

Thanks for the instructions. Finally got it to cooperate. Very clumsy but, it worked.
