I installed the custom UI that addresses that issue. I believe it's the version "Dark Gray Theme (MoI 4.0 beta) - Custom UI Bar.zip" I had to install and uninstall and test to find the one that worked out of the various .zip files there. The order of installation is important as you need to read in the author (Cody's) description below his screen grabs.
My theme page is more complicated than it needs to be, to be honest. Many little changes happened over a short period of time and it's convoluted now.
I'll be revamping my theme page soon to provide a much clearer, foolproof way to understand and install (and possibly uninstall) the options.

This is why I like MoI.
If one know how, many things are very easy to do and customize.
Thanks Michael for explanation and quick reaction.
Thanks Cody for info as well. And just let you know I already have your dark theme and command bar plugin :)
Keep up the good work guys ;)

Sounds great Cody. I like the theme and with a little css edits it's fairly customizable :) I subscribed to this thread if we get updates.
Thanks!

I noticed that the hyphen did not work as well (it used to work though), but an underscore does work for me. Weird. Something is definitely different now.

Hi Guys :)
Found few things I'd like to know.
1. Now when I open MoI with Darktheme I see almost all icons (or sections?) collapsed.
Is there a way of choosing which sections will be opened at startup. I'm noob-programmer.
2. @Michael. maybe hint for later release. Would it be possible to map a command into Options> shortcut keys> map a command by clicking on something?
e.g. User want to assign simple 'Move' command to a shortcut keys so when there is a space to enter command, user would click command icon in moi interface and click will be "translated" into input window.
But I will find move command in manual or somewhere so I know how to do it. But if it's simple enough programming, you can implement it in the future for moi beginners :)
Thanks

I don't believe the theme is interfering with how the icon panels initially are opened/closed. There were no changes to any code within that file. I believe MoI determines the available vertical space and auto-closes tabs as necessary.
Are you running
MoI 3.0 or
MoI 4.0 Beta?
What is your desktop resolution?
Is the application launching fullscreen or are you expanding it afterwards?
There are ways to manipulate how those panels are displayed. I have seen screenshots of panels where, say the
Draw curve and
Draw solid were combined into one panel. I have not done this myself, however.

Hi Cody,
It happened ever since I installed on fresh install of MoI 4latest beta > Darktheme > CustomUI bar
Clean MoI was fine.
I have Windows 10-64bit and full HD display.
I'm lunching full screen.

Try this - unmaximize the MoI window and stretch out the non-maximized size to be large, then close the window so that will establish the regular non-maximized window size. If the non-maximized window size is small I think that can cause the type of issue you are describing.

I do want to work on something similar to that in the future.

Interesting. Depending on how MoI is calculating the available space, the change of borders and padding with the icons, tabs and panels could possibly affect that. I did try some pretty crazy stuff at times when playing around with what could be accomplished with CSS. I'll keep this bug in mind as I continue to poke around with MoI.
When you say "full HD" display, you're talking about 1920 x 1080, correct?
If this problem persists after you try Michael's suggestion, we'll continue this in my
Dark Gray Theme thread so we don't flood this Custom UI thread.
I use MoI 3.0 on Win XP (32-bit at work) and Win 8 (64-bit at home) and don't have problems... and thanks, Michael, for being so practical and reasonable about how you allow people to use the MoI software license. I would not have been able to make my Dark Gray Theme at work, nor practice modelling techniques on my own spare time without your generous stance on licensing. You rock, man!

I installed the MiniSidepane.js and it is exactly what I wanted, cool!
But it is missing the selection and hide buttons. How do I get these to show?
From: Mr. Yuri (MR_JURAJ)
Hi Michael,
your suggestion worked.
When I switched to window mode it was very small.
So I expanded the window, expanded all the sections and set it to full screen.
Now when I open MoI the sections are expanded.
Thanks

Do you possibly have a customized side pane UI?
Can you show what your side pane looks like?

Hi Michael,
sorry for the late response, was out all day...
Here's the screen grab from the side panel,
thanks for taking the time!

Hi Death, since you have already customized the side pane you shouldn't use MiniSidepane.js - the way it works is it shuffles around some of the HTML content using script and it makes assumptions that the side pane contents are in their regular default setup.
It's meant to be used to rearrange the default side pane palettes, it doesn't really make sense to use it if you have customized and reordered it yourself already.
- Michael
From: Death
The thing is that they are missing...
I didn't change anything with the sidebar except adding the script in the startup folder.
Even if I use the unmodified MOI, they are still missing, so it isn't the customization that made them disappear...
Unless it' a Beta 4 issue?

Hi Death, what you are showing there is a customized side pane, you probably got it from the dark UI customization.
re:

You must have done so in order to get what you are showing.
If you didn't make a backup of the original UI before modifying it, you can get it by doing a reinstall.
- Michael
From: Death
Yeah, but the ONLY script is MiniSidepane.js, your script (in the previous pic) with an clean install, the items are still missing...
From: Michael Gibson
Hi Death, I'm not sure how to describe it more clearly - the items are missing because you have installed a customized SidePane.htm . The particular version you installed had them removed I guess.
The default UI looks like this:
Note for example the default UI has Draw curve / Draw solid as separate tabs while yours is not like that and instead has Draw/Edit combined together into a single tab. That's due to the custom UI that you are using.
To get back to the default UI you would need to restore the original SidePane.htm and any other files you modified or reinstall.

From: Michael Gibson
Hi Death, or probably to correct what I wrote above, it's not that your customized SidePane.htm has it missing - it's that MiniSidePane.js is not compatible with your customized SidePane.htm and won't work right, like I wrote above here:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=6507.385
If you want to use MiniSidePane.js you would need to have the default SidePane.htm , not a modified one.
So either remove MiniSidePane.js or keep MiniSidePane.js and restore the default SidePane.htm .
If don't have the original SidePane.htm then do a reinstall to get the default UI back again.
- Michael
From: Death
Let me try again, because maybe I have been too muddy about this:
On a default installation I wanted the panes to be combined and open, the script to do that is MiniSidepane.js (to be installed into the startup folder), because the default installation doesn't have that.
However, when I do that, the aforementioned items are still missing. I guess Max Smirnov overlooked them? What I need to know is what to do to have them back in there.
Is there a version that has them?
(This is more a question directed a Max).
Suggestion: It would be great, if you (Michael) could implement that (combining/splitting up) of the panes as an checkbox option in the next beta under the Options Menu. I love MoI and think this is the way to go for modeling, but the constant switching between tabs is kind of annoying, especially if one has the screen real-estate to fit the open panes.
Anyway, thanks again for your time, sorry to steal so much of it...
