Could we, please, have an option to set left and right columns initially closed in a published project!
(It would spare me, at least in 1/3 of what I publish, to go to Light Tracer…)

Can u help me understand your issue a bit better pls? What exactly do you mean?

I’m not sure if @BKE is experiencing the same issue, but personally, I find it really annoying that the Items panel keeps hiding automatically whenever I open a project. I prefer to have both panels visible at all times.

Narrow (bad).

Wide (really bad). A novice user has to figure out that each small cryptic icon demands a clic to close panels (twice)… (every time…)

I agree. Having both panels closed by default is very annoying.
Either:

  • make it a user option/preference;
  • include the UI state in the saved file (include views such as x-ray, hidden lines, etc);
  • make the UI state persistent; if I load a different model, or start a new project, then the last state of the UI should be active, not a “reset” (unless that is defined by the user preference ;-))

Got it, thanks.
