no problem with me > * Close > > When you close a buffer in one view, it's everything but expected that > this buffer gets closed in the other view too. I know this is > 'consistent', but I'd rather stop doing that. so your draft is that: hide - just hides close - hides && closes if in only 1 window right? i like more 'buffer gets closed in the other view too' but i'm not mad about it. from curiosity i just switched to openoffice to look what closing with multiple windows do and they also close document in both windows so i suppose its not so unintuitive for the rest of world. > * Close All / Close View > > Close all should close all visible workareas and the buffers that were > hidden in this view. Again, I wouldn't close buffers in another view. i still think you can hold your approach here if only we change menu entry name. pavel
