Toolbar, window and tab layouts saved with databases

i suggested this before (http://www.kinook.com/Forum/showthre...&threadid=3557), quite a while ago, but I thought I'd repeat it for emphasis.

My uses of UR are highly diverse - on line research and drafting papers, tracking contract opportunities (sort of a head-hunter relationship system), tracking and reporting on work tasks, keeping track of subject-based web sites when bookmarking won't scale up, recording an organization with position incumbents linked from nodes describing individuals.

Each of these applications could easily use a different layout. I've tried setting up a variety of layouts and applying them but it's too much to remember which layout goes with which application.

While I'm at it: I'm coming up to four years using UR. This is a product that doesn't wear out. A couple of times, I've found my applications for it have ended and something distracted me from picking it up again for a couple of months - like I was working on someone else's computers and they already had some kind of task or subject tracking gizmo making my life difficult. Then I'd put UR back into the mix and this sense of relief would wash over me as sanity returned.

That is on the request list, but for now, you can change the text for a layout as shown in the menus/toolbars via Tools | Customize, then select a layout menu/toolbar item, right-click and change its Name. You will need to repeat this (once for each layout) when switching to another layout, but after that, the menus will show the text you've entered, making them easier to identify/remember.

Tool bars are one thing, ....

I'm thinking about window layouts (which ones appear, where and whether they're permanently visible), which attributes show in the attributes pain, and where the various tool bars appear. Call me fussy ;-)

Yes, that can be customized for each layout.
