New windows

[Jonathan Taylor]

Could there (or is there?) an option to make any newly opened windows (e.g. SQL Window) default to being maximised?

The first window opened in a session seems to open non-maximised - any further windows that are opened seemed to inherit the maximised/normalised property of the current window (this appears to be standard MS Windows functionality).

Therefore, this option might only apply to the FIRST opened window.

Also, could there be an option to open a certain type of window (e.g. SQL Window) upon startup? I remember this option from when I used to use TOAD.

Yes. If you have a window maximized and select Window > Save Layout, then PL/SQL Developer will maximized the first window the next time.

You could create an empty file and supply it on the command-line. For example:

"C:\Program Files\PLSQL Developer\pslqldev.exe" i:\pls\empty.sql
