Bug: starting PLSD

[ScottMattes]

for the past week when i start PLSD the Browser pane is real narrow, like only a quarter of an inch.

Can you try to add a tool window (e.g. the window list or template list) to the Browser docking pane and try again?

 

[ScottMattes]

with the window list docked to the browser pane the browser opens at the same size as it was when i shut PLSD down.

but I like my window list to float and my template window hidden.

This is indeed a known problem. We're looking into a fix.

I'm looking forward to this fix too. Minor annoyance, but still annoying. Personally I was happy with the functionality in V6, but that's just me!

I haven't figured out yet how to have the key that toggles the Browser display act as a "parent" for the Window child window, as it did in V6. Is this possible still, or has progress passed me by?

 

[Marco Kalter]

It seems that progress has passed you by...

We'll look into an option for this as well.

Until the option is created, this is how I solved it.

I have a small macro to close the browser window, windows list and template window. I assigned the macro to a hot-key that I can easily remember like CTL+ALT+F12+Q (Just kidding on that last part - I saw it on Dilbert once and thought it was funny!)

Anyway, it works for me OK

Mike,

Thanks for the tip that macros can work on things besides editing. I didn't realize that was possible.

Pretty funny on the easy-to-remember hotkey. I've got SO many similar hotkeys in my brain already between PL/SQL Developer and ClipMate it's ridiculous!

BTW, check out ClipMate - it's a great clipboard manager on steroids.

Thanks for the tip on ClipMate. It looks pretty cool!
