I see that you can save custom layouts in Pinegrow, but it doesn’t appear that it remembers that you have the code editor open and docked at the bottom (under the preview display).

It’s obviously no big deal hitting CTRL+E to open it every time, but I’m just wondering if I missed some sort of setting where I could tell it to have the editor open whenever I start Pinegrow. No big whoop… just asking.

That is weird, on a Mac, mine always remembers the last layout I was using. I need to get a cheap laptop so that it isn’t a pain to cross-platform test!

It will remember the layout, just not the fact that the editor is open.
