MapInfo V 10 Toolbars
Andrew Tracey
Good Morning All,
I think this may be very straight forward but cannot seem to work it out.
Every time I open my MapInfo session I drag and drop my toolbars to where i want them (docked on the top of the screen). Every time i close MapInfo and open again the toolbars default to the old position.
How can I save the changes I have made to the position of the toolbars (does any know where this is controlled)
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Go to:

Tim,
Thanks for your response. I have tried to do this so many times and it only seems as if it is session based, every time I close the software and open it again it goes back to floating toolbars.
I don’t know if anyone has any other ideas?

Andrew,
If you are using a version below 10 then right click on an empty space on the toolbar and tick the box ‘Save as default’. Version 10+ should remember your last settings when it loads.
HTH,
Tom

Hi Andrew,
In older versions that Toolbars palette had a ‘Set as Default’ option on it, but that seems to have gone in 10 and 10.5. I have only just started using 10.5 but I have just tried quitting and restarting and the toolbars have stayed where I put them.
I am at a loss as to why yours are not doing so. You are doing a normal exit and it isn’t crashing on exit or anything funny?

Does this happens on basic mapinfo toolbar or MapCAD toolbar? I have the same problem but it only on MapCAD toolbar.

Zery

As far as I know its not possible to dock (and save) third party
application toolbars.
I think the reason is that PB has redesigned the way toolbars etc.
works, so it requeres that that the company supplering the software
rewrites their code.
Sincerly

Try putting some Mapbasic in the Startup.wor file to set the toolbars
where you want them when MI starts.
