How do I change the default windows when starting indesign

The default when I start up Indesign is “only the applications bar is showing”. I would like to be able to change the default to having the Tools and Control showing as well as a few windows like pages, styles, swatches, hyperlinks – not ALL of the windows. I’ve tried setting this up when I first open up Indesign and no documents open. But it still changes back to the default whrn I reopen Indesign. Is there anyway to change this?

launch indesign--open and position the panels you want--then go to the workspace menu and save your workspace--then, when you launch Indesign it will appear like your saved workspace

  • How do I change the default window color?

    Having white screens is too bright for my eyes!! I always change the default window color in Windows (hiss hiss) to a light shade of gray and that setting carries thru to all windows (i.e. Word, Excel, notepad....). Is it possible to do a similar thing with Tiger? I see that I can choose between a couple of "schemes" from a "Desktop and Dashboard Settings" area (or similar - i don't have my mac here now so can't look to see the proper name) but I see no way to alter colors within those schemes. If you can tell me how to change the default color for my windows I will be awfully happy. thanks.

    Personally, I wouldn't trust it, and I don't hesitate to try these things most of the time even though they sometimes cause problems. But I've used Unsanity products before and they all require installing a preference pane called APE; Application Enhancement module, and that thing caused me lots of problems for my system, lots of crashes and flakiness. I won't use it again.
    But I'm sure there are lots of people using it happily, but if you don't feel confident in dealing with system problems stay away from anything that adds a system preference pane or goes up in the top menu bar at the top (Apple icons excepted) or has to start up with the system.

  • How do I change the default quality when saving a series of edited photos in Photoshop Elements 9

    Say I have saved a series of edited photos using Quality 5. I then change to saving a new series using Quality 10. Each time I save a photo the quality appears as 5 and I have to change it manually to 10. Eventually the default quality will automatically change to 10, but it takes a fair numbers of saves to do this. How do I get the default quality to change as soon as I want it changed rather than having to wait for the software to finally do it itself?

    Interesting point. My situation is where I change the default quality then carry on using the new quality without closing down the program. What you are suggesting is that changing the default quality,  closing down the program, then restarting it might get the quality change to stick. I'll give it a whirl and see what happens.

  • How do I change the default page when I open a new tab or window?

    I recently downloaded a piece of software to translate languages. I removed the software, but remnants still appear. It changed my homepages (which I was able to change back). But, when I open a new window or tab, the search page associated with this software comes up.

  • How can i change the default module when lr5 opens

    lr5 on my win7 pc opens in the print module.  how do i change this to open in the library module?

    Lightroom re-opens at the same place, i.e. Catalog, Module, file, etc where you were working when you last closed the program. If you wish to have the program open in the Library module then you need to return there before you close/shut down the program.

  • How do I change the default picture when I enter my password when I first turn my computer on

    I'm trying to replace the default pic with a real one.

    Are you referring to the avatar? In that case, open System Preferences > Users & Groups. Then, just drag the photo you want to use as your avatar to the avatar picture you can find in System Preferences, so you will replace it.
    You can also press the avatar box in System Preferences and take a photo with the camera of your computer

  • How to change the default JRE when there are several version of JRE in Sys

    How to change the default JRE when there are several version of JRE in System?
    i have installed j2sdk1.5.0 then installed j2ee1.4,then installed Weblogic6.1 which use jdk1.3
    Now the JRE is jdk1.3\bin
    When run class that was compiled with jdk1.5,throw:
    java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError
    How can i change the jre to 1.5?

    There is a workaround to move from 1.5 version to the older 1.4 version. But this could be specific to the browser setting the JRE version.
    Excerpts from sun docs:
    However, a user can still run older versions. To do so, launch the Java Plug-in Control Panel for the older version, then (re)select the browser in the Browser tab.
    Example:
    Assume you are running on Microsoft Windows with Microsoft Internet Explorer, have first installed version 1.4.2, then version 5.0, and you want to run 1.4.2.
    Go to the j2re1.4.2\bin directory where JRE 1.4.2 was installed. On a Windows default installation, this would be here: C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2\bin
    Double-click the jpicpl32.exe file located there. It will launch the control panel for 1.4.2.
    Select the Browser tab. Microsoft Internet Explorer might still appear to be set (checked). However, when 5.0 was installed, the registration of the 1.4.2 JRE with Internet Explorer was overwritten by the 5.0 JRE.
    If Microsoft Internet Explorer is shown as checked, uncheck it and click Apply. You will see a confirmation dialog stating that browser settings have changed.
    Check Microsoft Internet Explorer and click Apply. You should see a confirmation dialog.
    Restart the browser. It should now use the 1.4.2 JRE for conventional APPLET tags.
    Details are here
    http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/jcp.html
    My system (Windows XP) has the version 1.5_09 set as the default. However i just installed JRE 1.5_06 and would like to revert back to _06 as the default JRE..
    Will update if i find more information

  • When I opt to "download this as a file" from my email account, Firefox defaults to notepad to open the file. How can I change the default to MS Word?

    Question
    When I opt to "download this as a file" from my email account, Firefox defaults to notepad to open the file. How can I change the default to MS Word?

    Is FF downloading the file as a .txt file? If so, go to "Folder Options" in the windows control panel. Click on the "File Types" tab. Scroll down until you reach the TXT file extension. Look to see what that extension opens with (lower part of panel). It probably shows notepad. Click on the <Change> button. Scroll down until you find "Microsoft Word." Select it and click the <OK> button. That should show the TXT extension is now associated with Microsoft Word. Click the <Close> button at the bottom of the panel.
    If FF is downloading the file as any other type, use the same process as above except look for the corresponding extension instead. If the extension is not listed click on the <New> button and create an association using the extension in the file name and then associate it with MS Word.

    When I download Microsoft word documents (if have word 2007), I have somehow changed the settings and it downloads them in wordpad, and the format is very bad and I can't read a lot of the document. How do I change the default setting back to using Microsoft Word 2007 to open these documents?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == about a few weeks ago - I had tried to open some docuuments saved on a mac, my PC (which runs Windows 7), used word pad to open these, and this seems to have changed the default settings somehow.

  • How do I change the default on shutting down Lion to NOT relaunch open windows?

    How do I change the default on shutting down Lion to NOT relaunch open windows? And how can I have Safari always open in full screen mode? I have to set it every time I open Safari.

    The feature you are talking about in System Preferences does work and is not related in any way to the one at startup.
    One restores the windows of an application you've quit, the other reopens all windows you had open at shutdown or restart.
    Why should "I" have to constantly turn off a checkbox when I shutdown the system?
    You don' t have to.  Did you have a look at my post just above yours?  With a double click you can have your restart without opening the last open windows.  That's less than clicking the apple icon and selecting "restart" or "shut down" and then clicking "Restart" or "Shutdown" again.
