How do I keep Window list docked and visible

Jan 24, 2026 07:17 AM (691 views)

When I work in JMP  like to have the Window list visible at all times on left side of screen - so easier navigation between tables and plots.  For that reason I have selected ' dock the window list in maximised windows' in Preferences.

But despite that the window list on left side of screen sometimes goes blank/ empty for no reason and I then have to click on Window on the top menu to navigate between files. If I restart JMP that usually brings Window List back on left side of screen.

Does anyone know a fix for this - to stop the docked Window list suddenly appearing empty?

Thanks in advance

(JMP version 17.2.0, Microsoft Windows 11 Enterprise)

You could try contacting JMP Support, but the support might be somewhat limited (if there is a bug) as you are using older version of JMP.  There could possibly some sort of scripting/shortcut solution which would at least let you "reset" the docked sidebar easily, but I can only test it with JMP18/JMP19.
