I don't use the Tool Bar, since I have what I use in key commands. I don't understand the need for this feature when you have command keys, but I guess there was a demand for it. And I know that you can click on the upper right button to get it to disappear.

My problem is that I like to maximize the file window size to the available screen space, but when a file opens with the Tool Bar showing, the window is sized to the space available with the Tool Bar. When I turn off the Tool Bar, the file window is reduced by the space not needed for the Tool Bar. I then have to manually resize the window to use the lost space.

When closing the Tool Bar, I don't understand why the program reduces the window, rather than giving you back in drawing space what the Tool Bar was taking up.

Failing that, is there a way to have the program default to no Tool Bar and let you open it if you want it, rather than the other way around?

...also, you might investigate purchasing a larger monitor. If screen real estate has as high a value to you as you say, then you will certainly find the cost of additional territory acceptable.

also, if you don't use the toolbar, does that mean you don't use Nudge?

Thanks, Michael, that's exactly what I needed. I did look for the information in the manual, but I looked where they talk about the Tool Bar and there wasn't any reference to how to change the default.

I use the Option+arrows key command combinations to nudge up, down, and to sides.
