Stop resource manager from being always on top.

[mreadshaw]

Is there a way to stop the resource manager window from always being on top of the main Vectorworks window. When I'm using only my laptop screen there isn't enough space to have both and disabling and enabling the resource manager is a pain. I'd much rather use the MacOS's desktop feature to switch back and forth as needed.

 

Thanks!

What about setting the palette to auto-hide. Window-Palettes-Auto-hide. Works really well on my MacBook Pro.

Auto-hide only work for docked palettes for me. The auto-hide floating is checked but it doesn't do anything. Maybe I'm missing some other option?

Just checking that you have toggled the + button?

Ah! I see how it works. I have the resource manager, attributes, and snapping palettes all docked and it seems that docked palettes lose the + button and therefore the auto-hide doesn't work with my setup.

@markdd forgot how to do this, and couldn't find it in the VW help documentation. Thanks Mark!
