[chimerax-users] Docking window for html viewer automacially

[Eric Pettersen]

Hi Shubham,
	Is this for your own personal use (rather than something you will be giving to others to use)?  For your own use, to prevent particular tools from starting up when ChimeraX starts up, bring up a context menu over the tool (right mouse click) and uncheck "Start at ChimeraX Startup".  To have a tool start docked or undocked and in a particular location, put the tool in that location and again use the context menu and choose "Save Tool Position".
