Also, if there are other "configurable features" that can be specifically identified as helping improve productivity or efficiency then please list them and get some feedback here as to their relative importance.

Implement a resource file for PathFinder

To be able to control appearance, position and any other configurable features of PathFinder via a resource file (aka XYwyg or .ini)

Perhaps the 'configurable features' should be a separate idea post?

At a minimum, such a file should enable the size and position of the PathFinder window to be defined.

  • Its possible to do the size and position of 'pathfinder' and the associated "print" dialog in an 'ini' file. However, it would not be possible to maintain the current settings. In other words, if we implemented this, the old size and position would NOT be remembered until it was newly established in a newly created "ini" file.  

    Also keep in mind, that while the file controls the position and size, changes made to the windows get saved and become the new location and size when restarting.

    As to the look and feel, the dialogs (at least on windows), take on the attributes of MS windows dialogs.
