Thanks for noting this. It's new to me, too. I've barely used FMP11 so far.

It seems this is not a setting that we can script. Do I assume that it also is not saved with the file? So a user can alter the setting at will...

This reduces its usefulness somewhat. You could design a layout to fit a screen size based on the minimal (say Text Only) toolbar, but the end user will likely be using the default (giant icons).

Or am I missing a way for the developer to take control?
