Save panels layout

Postby midipixel » Tue Feb 01, 2022 3:57 am

Hello Aivars and team.

I just posted my workflow on the Web Developer talk section of this forum. You'll notice that I use a pretty unorthodox panel arrangement. My problem is that every time I close the program, I don't have a way to save my preferred panel layout. So I have to reassemble it all over again.

So I suggest that either:

A) Rapid PHP automatically saves the last panel layout and load it as the program opens.
B) It offers a way to save the current "panel state" in an external file, just like the "Save a list of open files" feature.

I'd really rather have option A, though. At least as a flag on preferences.

Thanks!

I saw the post and I understand your issue. I don't think we could ever make it so that it saves/restores Inspect Element part of your workflow, or the preview location, as these are not really part of layout, but we will consider saving/restoring the layout of document tabs when possible. I believe this has been asked before and is in the requests list.

Understood, Aivars.

Well, saving the layout of the panels would already be an improvement. Thanks for adding that to the feature list. :wink:
