Just started at a new company and the previous user of Solidworks has the feature manager to be hidden by default (I have to click the three arrows to show it). Even the property managers for various tools are hidden and must be expanded to be seen.
Someone is going to enlighten me as to how easy it is to change this setting - and how lame this question is...
Thank You!

open up your part template.
Click the arrows to make the feature manager to be shown.
Save it.
Now it´s the way you want to.
Ingvar,
That is going to explain why I haven't found it (I'm not at work now), and why I won't be able to change it. We are all using the same templates that were likely set-up prior to the advent of wide screen monitors to save space.
Another oddity in the template is that dimensions are displayed in both decimal and fractional format. Not sure I understand the need for this when working with three-place dimensions...
Just post back with an image of it when you get back to work, if you don´t figure it out in the Document properties. Or if there is something more to it. See image.
Hope this helps.
This one I know how to change at least on an individual basis, which is what I have been doing to clean up my work space.
