  • Since a template must be placed in a layout and there is no UI for managing templates otherwise, I keep at least one instance of every template in a dedicated "Templates" layout so I can quickly(ish) find and update my templates.

    I dock my Templates layout in the lower right corner of the editor, sharing space with the Tilemap and Layers views. It's clunky, but it's the best workflow I've found for managing template settings.

    But whenever I reopen the project, I lose my docked Templates layout and need to re-dock it. This happens no matter which secondary slot I dock the layout in, as far as I've tested.

    Is there some way to preserve the editor docking layout for a project? It's frustrating having my editor reset every time I reopen my project.

  • I've set up convenient editor configurations many times and it irritates me to no end when it just gets reset. I like to have a little notepad docked in the corner, and have also taken the templates layout approach.

    It seems like the layout remembers predefined Bars like bookmarks and tilemaps, but doesn't treat event sheets, layouts, scripts, etc. in the same way.

  • Thanks GeoffB, given your response and the lack of any others, it sounds like this feature doesn't exist. I'll write up a suggestion for it.

  • The idea is here:

    if anyone cares to throw a vote at it. Thanks!
