Designer Look and Feel

Postby petertseng » Tue Nov 11, 2008 8:11 pm

The first thing I do when I go into the "Design" tab for a file is to set the look and feel to "Windows" or "current platform". The problem is, I have to do this every time I want to use the Designer on a file, because it defaults to "undefined". Instead of having to to this, it would be great if it remembered what I picked last time, or if there was a preference for this (is there?). Minor problem, but somewhat annoying.

It will actually default to anything you like.

There is a preference. Is it not working for you?
