>My "expert" guess is that since its now a dockable window, you'd want it always avialable in your Window schemes. When no designer is up, they still need to show it so your screen edges don't go for a ride while its trying to figure out how they should look without the properties window. So instead of showing nothing, they must have thought, "Hey! Lets show the _screen properties!"

Have you tried to create a new project yet? I haven't. I do have a personal one that I'm working on that might be a perfect test, seeing as how it's an SDI form.

Aside: I wonder if Mike Stewart might care to wade in on this.
