The File panel is no longer required to switch between open databases so you can now turn off the Selected files list and its associated Open, ReOpen, Activate, Replace, and Overlay buttons to free up more space in the Main Window for other controls such as the Plot list or Notepad area. If you want to hide the Selected files list, open the Preferences Window and click off the Show selected files check box. When the Selected files list is hidden, an additional Sources combo box appears just above the Plot list. If you want to switch between different databases when the Selected files list is hidden, you can choose a new active database, also known as an active source, from the Source combo box. Selecting a new active source from the Source combo box is the same as highlighting a file in the Selected files list and clicking its Activate button. If you save your settings when the Selected files list is hidden, your future VisIt sessions will also not show the Selected files list. The Main Window is shown before and after hiding the Selected files list in figure.
