Panel-less preview (option)

Post by FrankC »

I've tested and (temporarily) used quite a number of code editors, also with internal preview, but WB is the first in which the preview by default still displays the panels. Worse than that, it does not seem possible to have them hidden automatically. I know that with F4 one can toggle the display of the panels, but their presence in the preview pane is useless, most of the time. So I would suggest to have them hidden automatically, or make it customizable item.

Although I still find the display of the panels useless in the preview mode, I did find that moving the contents of the right panel to the left and closing the right panel gives a preview area of some 1100px on a 1280 machine. Which is enough for me, coz' I generally make the overall container some 970px wide. And having all the panel menus on the left side is handy, too, because it creates short mouse movement distances.

So this is not an urgent request.
