Does anyone know if (and how) you can turn off the auto-expand of design elements in the left pane of Domino Designer?
While I can imagine the auto-expand of design elements in the left pane might be useful if you only work on a single database at a time, I rarely find myself in that situation. I usually have 2-5 databases open at a time and having every database’s list of forms, views, agents, etc expand every time I open something results in me spending way too much time scrolling up and down and collapsing lists of design elements so I can easily switch between databases.

I haven’t seen how to control the automatic behaviour of the Designer, but I have at least found this shortcut:Click on the header of any of the databases in the left pane, then press Shift± (shift minus) just like when you’re collapsing views. Shift++ and Shift+* behave correspondingly.

I wish so too. And I wish there was also an setting to turn automatical bookmarking of database in the Designer off. Although it says “Recent Databases”, there could be an option called “Show only currently opened databases” and/or “Maximum number of recent databases:”.
