Toggle windows

It would be helpful, to me, to have the capability to toggle the results/messages window, as well as the Tables/Procedures/etc sidebar, on and off. 
When I'm viewing a query, I like to maximize screen area and remove distractions.

Re: Toggle windows

You can try out this feature in 3.28.1.
The shorcut key is F11

Re: Toggle windows

The new feature is working, and is quite helpful! 

Ultimately, it would be nice to toggle the sidebars independently of each other.

Once I've started scripting a project, i.e. selected all of the necessary tables and views,
the Tables/Procedures/etc sidebar just sucks up real estate.  The real work then switches
to the script and results windows. 

A typical scenario would be to pull the required table/view definitions, then hide that sidebar.
Move to a full script window (currently F11), run the query, view the results, hide the results,
moving once again to full screen script window.

I may determine that another table is needed, so I would "unhide" the Tables/Views sidebar,
get what I need and hide it again.

Thanks for your efforts!

Re: Toggle windows

There's small annoyance, when browsing the grid with a keyboard and hitting F11, the active keyboard input stays in the grid. You have to klick the editor window for the cursor to appear.
