When I open a Song File in Realband the Comments Window shows up automatically and full screen. I've looked, but can't find a way to stop this. I prefer to open comments only if I want to. How do I stop this, pls?

Yeah that is annoying at best. What i do is to open a new file, and make sure the comments window is closed, and when you close it, save that file. Then when you open again it should open to that format.

During the upgrade process I had this happen to a certain file also.
I believe I used Save As (since I wanted that file on a different drive anyway) to solve, after closing the Comments window.

It seems to be a 'default' setting, i.e. full screen comments window when opening any song. I can't remember if Realband always behaved this way, or if I've changed a setting by mistake. I like to see the realtracks percentage loading on the menu bar. In BIAB there is a tick box to choose to open or not open the Memo window -- I thought something like that might be available in RB.

There's a check box in prefs to stop this.

Many thanks! And I thought I had looked at all the preferences settings sick I must be getting monitor blindness. I am noticing that I am finding it increasingly difficult to read the fret numbers in the guitar chord symbols, even when the symbols are reasonably large. frown

Silvertones knows RB. Even an old timer like me misses the obvious sometimes.
Thanks John.
