Is there a way to close the instrument pane and DSP pane without having pop up when I press F1?

Hey:) I noticed a behaviour which I am not sure is a bug or not.

I like working with these panes closed, but I also frequently jump to other sections with the F keys (F3 for sample editor etc).

When I go back to the pattern matrix via F1, these panes pop back out! Is anyone else having this problem? Is there something I can do?

I noticed that the decision is respected when switching via mouse rather than F1.

Thank you <3

It only restores the saved layout.
You must save with the layout you wish to restore.

Thank you so much!!

you should check out the Paketti Dynamic Views - that will let you have much more control over what happens with the various viewmodes:

hope this helps
