Greetings,
Previously to CS3 one could create a startup document that would set the appearance of a palette. For instance, I could make the Pantone coated library persistent AND have it show as Small List View; I could have the swatches show as name also. I have always deleted all default Graphic Styles, Brushes, unwanted colors, etc so all palettes are clean.
While creating a custom workspace or a template helps with some of my desired setup, I can figure no way to always have the Pantone coated library show as Small List VIew as a default or have the swatches palette show as name as a default. Additionally, if I just select a new document, eg no template, I get all the styles, brushes, etc that clutter my palettes. I miss the old startup file capabilities.
Is there still a way to get what I need? Am I missing something or do I just have to reset palettes to name lists every time I open my template?
Thanks to those that have the answer and share it with me.
One more "irritant" - on one of three Macs we have installed CS3, a new document always opens up with a document window fills only half the screen. On the two other Macs the new document window fills the screen. All Macs are the same. Anyone know why?
