    Default Blank document when switching to FH w/o a doc open

    How can I stop FH from opening a blank document everytime I switch to it when it doesn't have a document already open?

    Regards,
    Mike

    This is an intended behavior. It happens in FH9, 10, and MX (I think).
    At least on OS X in Mac. In Mac you can use the Command-Tab keystroke to
    switch programs and that will not open a blank page. However, if you
    have a lot of programs open, it is easier to just close the offending
    window when you open FH. I agree this should be a "turn offable" option.

    You can't. My solution is to create a document called "DON'T CLOSE ME". I
    put those words on large type on the page, make the document window as small
    as possible, and slide it under my layers panel which is always open. I
    leave this document open for the whole day. It prevents a new document from
    opening when I click on the FH icon in the OS X dock.
