Douglas Norton meinte doch tatsdchlich:
Is the user going to be deprived on some important functionality by not
having the object visible in your window. What if the user does not
see the
preference for showing this window object. If you are developing
shareware
is your user going to dismiss your product because he/she never
discovers
the object you are hiding by default.
i think that's what it comes down to, not just in this exapmle.
imho every object that may be crucial to the user or a crucial part of
the input should be "on" by default with the option to turn it "off".
the find panel for example:
case: [ ] ignore
anything that may only provide additional use or information *may* be
turned off by default and then turned on by the user. example.
[ ] show item info
considerations regarding screen real estate or mere aesthetics should
be omitted in such cases.
just my 2...
