Thanks for the replies folks ( Really, despite my aggrivated frustrated and completely annoyed state ) I appreciate your replies, Now ... here's the scoop.
 I have been using sonar since version 3, I have become quite efficient at doing what i do without the need for relearning the damn interface every time, but i put up with a certain amount of it each time I upgrade, this time I was, and still am quite pissed off and frustrated because I can't afford wasting time relearning the whole damn program in order to find a convoluted way of not using an option I dont particularly need or want right now ... so for those of you telling me to read the manual or go watch some tutorials or spend some time with it... thanks but Im not a newbie and for me TIME IS MONEY!... and for those upset by my bashing the programmers, i guess your the programmers, buddies or family of the programmers and therefore sympathetic to them RE: my message, because i was under the illusion this was a " Community USER forum "  and for anyone who doesn't get my point it is simply this...Adding "OPTIONS" is great and fantastic, just allow me the user / purchaser the choice! Thats why they are called OPTIONS because they are OPTIONAL, what would it really take a class a programmer to write the code for an on off button ( 5 - 10 minits work ) while I have wasted a few hours of time fooling around and " Reading the manual by the way "  to try to find a way to turn it off which is why I ended up here in the first place!
  So once again if your a user who has replied Thanks, if your an employee or have a connection please let them know that I am not the only one who is unhappy with this .. I know of at least 3 others i have talked to that hate the fact that you can't just clik on an X and close it out ...

In previous versions double clicking would bting the now marker to the point reqired and highlighted the track no? then you could split at that point or proceed to do whatever you inteded to do from that point. when one becomes accustomed over a long period of usage its annoying to do something from a learned habit and find it does something else.

I was A: thanking those who took the time to reply b: answering to replies that posed questions and reiterating my issue that was the original question c: for those suggesting that other versions of sonar might be what i need ... I have already purchased this upgrade as I have always had producer and why would i now go and purchase another? d: explaining that I have already read the manual in regard to the multidock and found no help there and thus came here for the first time which is why I nhave a limited number of posts ( because i have always been able to figure things out without help by going to the manual ) my time and my money is limited and I don't appreciate it being wasted by the presumption by the programmers that this " improvement ' should be accepted without question regardless of the time and effort required to assimilate it.

Some people here wish there was that X for some posts too.

Seriously though G.E.L. I'm curious where you specifically read Multidock is an OPTION? Skylight is not an OPTION (AFAIK) just as Multidock is not an OPTION (AFAIK).


I get that you (and three others) don't like it but calling it somthing it is NOT is not really an OPTION, IMHO.

well if it's NOT an option what exactly is it, are you saying that this " function" has been placed into the program and i have no CHOICE but to use it wether i want to or not? because that is the crux of my initial question... complaint and cause of frustration ... I noticed other replies here feel the same way ... This is not the way to " serve your customers, by forcing them to relearn and assimilate something because the programmers think it's a great idea ( and perhaps for some it is, for me its not ) so if it's not an OPTION as you say, perhaps it should be?

Thanks for the reply ... Your kidding me?  They better come up with an option to turn this on and off or I'm done with Sonar for good.. it's a complete time waster as far as im concerned ... don't give me options that I can't select or deselect...you don't know what i want or when... so stop trying to tell me what options i need... dickhead programmers!
