Is it possible to lock/disable this workspace sizing?

Hi, I have "nervous fingers" and sometimes I resize my stuff :(

Is it possible to lock this resizing? The option "dock/undockable" does not inflict this, I did try that already.

 

Thanks.

    I don't believe so, I've done the same more than one and it is frustrating.

    Yeah I have it sometimes, looking not good enough and resizing my stuff again :<

    I have a similar problem — my fingers twitch in the other direction, so I sometimes end up undocking the View pane, usually whizzing it up off the top of the monitor screen. My solution, once I've fixed the stray pane, is to save a "known good" setup with Window>Workspace>Save Layout.

    Try Ctrl+U (pc), it locks the workspace and stops you from docking/undocking tabs.

    that can you stop easy, I posted a screenshot in the beginning, where you can find the dock option, then is all fixxed and nothing will move, but the resizing does still work :(

    Yes, that's what the saved layout does — when if you mess up your pane sizes, reloading the saved layout will restore your preferred sizes.

    I agree 100%. I have the same prob with enough regularity that I'd looked into it, tried using the Saved Workspace Layout thing only to end up with tons of saved layouts, as when you add new utilities or reorganize anything about Tabs or Panes, or Buttons for Scripts, you need a new Saved Layout. I wouldn't need any at all if you could just lock the Docking Areas...
