How do I stop the screen being cluttered with modeless dialogs?
A. There are several modeless dialogs which require screen space: the Properties dialog, the Calculator (or Go To dialog), the Find dialog and the Bookmarks dialog. If you have a small screen with all these open then there is not much room for actually viewing the file. This is made worse if you have a template “tree” view open for the file in a splitter window (although you can change this to use tabbed windows instead of a split one). Note that these modeless dialogs are not “dockable” as in some other programs as this does not save any space and often wastes it. Instead the dialogs remain on top of the main HexEdit window and try to get out of the way when the cursor is moved “underneath” them. Also note that the Bookmarks dialog is resizeable so you can make it very narrow to just see the column with the names of the bookmarks. The ideal solution for this problem is to have a 2nd monitor. Then you can position all your modeless dialogs on the other monitor and avoid the problem. He
