Dual Pane to Single to Dual Loses the Configuration

Post by pj »

When in dual pane view, with multiple tabs open in each pane (my normal, messy, workflow), if I accidentally switch to single pane then restore dual pane, all the tabs configured in the lower/right pane are gone.

Can the lower/right pane's tab configuration be retained when switched from dual to single so the configuration isn't lost but restored when returning to dual pane view?

you can try CUSTOMIZE > FOLDER GROUPS > STARTUP menu command, which will restore the tabs you had when you started the program

I use folder groups on a regular basis to save bottom/right pane configurations. It's the times when I haven't saved the pane config and accidentially hit ctrl-O(uch) by mistake that are the issue.

Deleting the configuration information seems extreme.

Again, can the program save the configuration and restore it back to the last saved folders / tabs when going from the (almost never used) single pane configuration back to the dual pane configuration?

If so, will you implement it in the next beta?
