Lock down those darn OIP and navigation tabs!

[Kaare Baekgaard]

There are days, where e v e r y single interaction with the OIP in VW21 releases the frontmost tab and makes a mess out of my desktop.

 

I hardly think anyone requested this pestilent feature.

 

I for one hate it with every fibre in my body.

 

Please provide me with a lockdown mechanism, so that the OIP and navigation tabs remain where they are supposed to remain - and please do so before VW22.

 

And for future reference: Please provide users with a choice, whenever you make 'smart' improvements to something so fundamental as the OIP.

I spend hours every week trying to locate and reattach palettes, that have been accidentally torn off and moved, because that is what they do all of the time, and they cannot be locked down.

 

And I do not even have palsy!

 

I never heard of anyone who use this 'feature'  for its misconceived purpose, so why is it still here?

 

At least provide us with an off-switch, please.

This was one of the things that was changed for SP3. Still no way to lock, but the accidental dragging has been substantially improved. If you can upgrade to SP3 try it and see.

Is that why my layers in the navigation panel don't stay put.  Every time I try to change layers the layers re adjust their order.  It just started happening today.  Its driving me nuts.  Please tell me it just a setting.

More likely you are clicking in the Column headers at the top of the Layer List. The column you click in will be used for the sort order of the list. If it is already selected it will toggle between sorting in ascending and decending order.

Will you please just provide an effing off-switch?

Put an off switch on it.

Come on.

Let me kill the abomination.
