Notes in my workflow

[Clint Cozier]

I've attached a screen shot of a typical workspace for me. My user notes are in a zone by themselves, with the text from which I'm working in a different zone with one other pane open in the zone. When I want to add or edit a user note and the text zone is active, the shortcut key (Command U) not only brings up the notes in an editor, but opens the notes in a pane in the text zone between Greek Text and the ESV. I seldom (never) want that pane created. The only way I've found to avoid that is move the focus to the Notes Zone, the start editing. Am I missing something obvious?

Try unchecking Preferences -> User Files -> "Open parallel pane when editing"

That's it! Wow, that was driving me crazy. Thanks Joel.

Thank you!  I've had the exact same problem.

Like I posted last evening I have had the same question as @Clint Cozier.   However now when I uncheck in preferences "Open parallel pane when editing"   the edit window does not close when I click "update".  It did before.   Is there something else I need to change so the edit window closes when I click "update"?
