WHY the F that the "Type" window can only be docked to top or bottom panel?

I just could NOT figure it out why ???? This is sooooooooo STUPID!

Can't you see, when you dock the type window on top, it blocks the view on the canvas!!!!!

 

Like, seriesouly, whoever updated this, deserved "the worst product develop ever" award!!Congratualtions, like you should quit your job forever, and never work again. 

this is just so disgusting, i wanna throw up.

Hey, first of all: try to be kind when you post something here, even when you're frustrated because something doesn't work like you want, ok?

  • If you've never seen this top bar before (the Control Bar), maybe you're in the wrong Workspace? You might want to use the Essentials workspace by going to Window > Workspace > Essentials. And then reset it, by going to Window > Workspace > Reset Essentials. Then open all the extra panels you like by going to the Window menu.

I hope this helps!

At the moment I can't delete this post, but probably it'll also help others.
