Description:
I installed the (so called) "Easy Docking Manager" in IDE. However, trying to dock all windows properly is nearly impossible. First of all, which window is the main window? Which is the ultimate parent, so I can dock all on it?
Logical conclusion is that Lazarus main window is the one containing the main menu. So I docked the Source window to it. What a mistake. Entire source window was compressed into 2 lines. The main window is not resizable (despite showing the resize arrow), so now I have a Source window that is fixed to 2 lines of text. I feel like working on a calculator.
What's even worse, there's no way to undock the Source window. The docking bar on top, but top is not visible (covered by the Main Menu I guess) so there's no easy to get my Source editor back.
Additional information:
The reason I even switched to version 0.9.31 was because version 0.9.30 could not display the Messages window in the dock state. All other windows docked fine, but messages could not be displayed by clicking View => Messages or any other way. If Messages could displayed and docked, I find the 0.9.30 docking behavior much more logical.
