first of all, i've got to say how impressed i am with the new features in kde3.4. the eyecandy stuff is just... shiny! i love it. but i'm having one problem that i'm hoping someone here can help me with in kate. kate seems to be using a sort of pane system for it's documents & filesystem panels and i really want to go back to what i had in 3.3x -- that being the ability to: a. have the documents and filesystem panes share the left-side of the work area, one *above* the other. b. remove the projects pane altogether as it now, having both panels open requires far too much of my work area (left and right) and it's squeezing out the space for my code. i tried moving them around like i did in 3.3 and while the silhouette during the move seems to imply that the panels would share one side, releasing the left mouse button just shoves them both on to the one side, allowing only one panel to be viewable at a time. please tell me there's an option somewhere i haven't checked and that this isn't something that was removed for this release. -- the world needs dreamers and the world needs doers. but above all, the world needs dreamers who do. - sarah ban breathnach ___________________________________________________ .
