tree-view hidden at start-up

[lackovic]

How do I set the tree-view to be hidden at start up?

I don't want it to show up every time I open a file.

There is a way to completely disable it in Settings > Packages > tree-view, but I can't find a way to hide it at start-up.

There is a hacky way to do it. Will be nice to have a first-class support for this, because init.coffee-way isn't stable.

+1 (a lot) -- I like tree-view when I want it, (which is not all the time,) en/disabling it when I want it is a bore. I second the request to show it when I open a folder #689

Has this been quietly implemented in 1.13? I don't get a tree view when opening files or folders now.

@jsejcksn see #1023.

Thanks, @50Wliu. I imagine that this request might be looked at during the fix for the issue that you mentioned. Is is possible for you to bring up enhancement #689 to whoever is addressing the fix when that happens (since you're a member)?

Any update on this? I tried messing up init coffee but it is inconsistent and you can see it opening before it automatically closes. In Atom 1.17 there are the hover popus to show the tree so even more reason to have an option to disable it from appearing on its own.

Many thanks.

New to atom, one of the finishing touches on my setup to make it default text editor -- still hopeful.

I've tried everything from the tree-view package to every similar thread's many suggestions. None have worked for me.

Has a workaround eventually been found to hide the tree view by default? It's annoyingly reappearing when switching between files/tabs of the same project.

I am having the opposite problem: I always want the tree view on startup, but I need to open it by hand.

I have disabled the tree-view plugin, but it still seems to show up. Has anyone found a way to permanently disable this?

@mikegrima A screenshot of what you are referring to would help. A disabled package is not run at all.

I just replicated -- in a terminal, I issued the command atom asdf/ (This is not a file or an existing directory).

Attached is:

Oddly enough, I have another Mac with the same exact settings and that mac works fine. Only this one is experiencing this issue ¯\(ツ)/¯

Hi guys. I opened #1346 to add an option for this. It's draft until build issues #1344 are resolved.

same, have you found a solution @crazymykl

Any updates on this?

I am using Atom as a text editor on specific files for syntax highlighting, and it is really annoying to have no control over the tree-view opening every time, for now I will keep the tree-view package disabled.

[pokono]

Same here, I use Atom mostly as a scrap editor and having to deal with the project pane at every start it's really annoying.
An option would be superb!

I looked everywhere for this answer. Thanks @mikegrima So simple in retrospect. Just didn't occur to me that default modules could be unloaded. Now I know.
