Hi,
With D7, whenever after the project is compiled the message view appears to
show the hints/warnings/errors, but if the compilation is successfully I
just don't want it because it occupies the working space, and I need to
close it by clicking on the small close button on its upper left corner...
Is there any third party tool can close it automatically on successfully
compilation? Or at least allow me close with keyboard?
To the third tools vendors: If it involves very frequently used actions,
even a small improvement can save a lot of time!
Thanks.
Edwin.

visible. If you close that window and save the desktop again, it will not
default to showing the messages. IIRC, when you compile and there are
errors, it will open the messages window automatically.

Paul,
I cannot recall if I were saved the my desktop with the messages view window
visible, but I tried saving my desktop again after closing it, the problem
still exists. Anyway you reply inspired me, I saved the desktop with the
messages view window in floating mode, so when I appears I just need to
click anyway outside of it it will disappear, instead of needing me click
it's small close button, Thanks!

According to my experience, that tab will close automatically if
it's the only tab.
If you have some "search in file" result in the search tab, those
tabs will be shown after compilation.
So you should close all other tabs manually except the message tab.
This feature (or maybe a bug) is really annoying, IMHO.
