Process console not closing when done

[MineralMike]

The process console used to slide off the workspace a few seconds after the process completed, but now it does not. I have to click the [X] button to  close it.

A search of this forum found a post suggesting the "Stick" button might have been clicked, and clicking it again would restore the normal slide-off behavior.

My process console window does not have a "Stick" button. What should I be looking for?

I'm using version 01.08.06.1447.

Thanks.

I just installed 01.08.06.1448 Ripley X64, and the process control still doesn't clos, and has no Stick button (photo attached).

What's the OS - Win, Mac, Linux?

This is a really weird issue. I haven't seen anything like this before, and AFAIK nothing similar has been reported.

Try resetting all application settings. The fastest way to do this is by deleting the PixInsight.ini (Windows, Linux) or PixInsight.plist (macOS) configuration file (while PixInsight is not running, of course). You'll find this file on the same folder where you have your license file (see FAQ 2.7 to learn where it is located on each platform). By doing this you'll lose all current settings, but your configuration will be reset to factory defaults the next time you launch the application. Let me know if this helps.

The new .ini file did the trick. I looked at it and found a couple of ProcessConsole settings that were different in my original .ini file. I copied those to the original and restored it, and now all is well. The OS in Win 8.1.

Thanks very much for the help.
