Simplified window for new document
 

I prefer the classic Macintosh user interface which relies heavily on menus and not on toolbars, etc. I have set things up so a new document comes up with an unadorned page, but have not been able to get rid of the "Canvas" bar on the left or the rulers. Is there a way of setting the default "view" menu so that "canvas" and "rulers" is unchecked in a new document?

Thanks.

You can create a new Template (via the File Menu -> New Resource), hide the sidebars and rulers, save it and make that new template your default.

That should bring up all new documents without the adornments.

Hope that helps,

Thanks, Joel. That's great!
