Title: IDE and help file(s)
Post by: RitchieF on September 05, 2012, 09:11:34 PM
Closing the IDE should also close the help files if opened .

The current IDE has never done that.
I'm not sure what kind of problems trying to do that I would encounter but I will look into it.

Hi,

Not really a problem - the Users Guide is a separate program - there's an icon in the main folder to start it (although I usually fire it up from the IDE)  :)

It's easy enough to close when you've finished reading it.

best wishes, :)

As Graham said it, "not really a problem". I also usually fire the help from the IDE but leave it active even when I exit the IDE. It's pretty useful to have it open just to check some things in a leisure manner. Larry, if you enable closing the help when exiting the IDE I'd hope you'll leave a choice switch somewhere so that some of us can continue working just as we are used to.

Keep up the great work you are doing.

No one is saying that. 
And like I said, I will look into it.

I know. Stupid meaning more in the sense of not necessary
