Re: Frescobaldi to default window layout

[Urs Liska]

Hi Andrew,

I didn't say anything about the value of the choice of the original settings. Actually I don't remember them anymore (since there's no real way to get back to them short of installing Frescobaldi on a fresh computer).

What I meant is that "revert to default" is clearly a command to reset all (layout) settings to their "factory presets". There's not much to argue about that, I think.

What you are asking for is saving personal presets, one of them maybe being your "personal default". In order to achieve that we'll have to determine which settings we want to be included in such a preset (Obviously the positions of all windows from the "Tools" menu, but would you also want to store colors and fonts, zoom sizes, or maybe a copy of *all* Preferencs? This would have to be discussed) and then figure out an interface to maintain that. This isn't really hard to do, I think, but someone needs to take the time to do it. But *if* it is done adding a "factory reset" is trivial, and I think it should be added too.

Best

Hi Urs,

I can't quite say I agree with that. The default when first opened is to not show the Documentation Window. You have to choose it to turn it on. Trivial to do and little effort, yes, but the point is my default is but everyone's default.

That's easy. The default is how it would be with no user preferences present.
