I did not change anything in preferences, I just used the default 
setting which has "Hide Palettes" and "Hide Message Box" checked "when 
editing scripts". But even with these settings the tools stack should 
reappear after closing the script editor - which it does not, unless you 
click at the "compile" button first!

So this is still a bug!

I understand that Rev developers try to make life for users more 
comfortable, but contrary to their intentions sometimes make things more 
complicated.
The default setting should in any case be the other way round.-

The same holds for the other issue Richmond raised - now having only one 
script editor open at the same time as the default.

Best regards,
