Thanks for the encouraging words. For a while, I was truly losing interest on this app because of discouraging reviews here. When I trace its history, most of the intervening versions were in scriptbuilders where i need not read thru those "smarty-alec" type of reviews. that's where this app had "matured" to the current state. i am grateful that i persisted.
I appreciate your suggestion very much. I will consider it in future versions. Meanwhile, perhaps it may help to note that there are some keyboard shortcuts to the hidden buttons. For example, if you press "Return" it can take you quickly to the plain window. That and a few more but I will still check into the Pref settings.
