Minimap off by default?
« on: August 01, 2018, 11:45:22 AM »
Can I turn the minimap off by default?  It seems to turn up every time I open a file that I haven't opened before.  It is a cute feature but normally I want its width.

Thanks

Go to Tools>Options.  You can then select a particular language or all languages.  It is in the View category (Show minimap).

Ah! Thanks. I could have sworn I'd looked there, but obviously not.

You can also turn it off when you go through Quick Start Configuration wizard.  You'll find it at the top of the "Fonts" page.

You can also turn off the minimap here (Options>Languages>All Languages>View>Show minimap). It's good to know about All Languages because it can help with changing other settings in a global way.

I turned the minimap off for all languages, but this didn't clear the map for files that had been opened (and possibly closed) before I toggled the setting. There must be a sticky per-file flag somewhere.

I think I had to restart slick for the setting to take.
