How to edit captions in Timeline and Program without Text panel and Graphics panel opened?

[Edit Videos]

Greetings Adobe Community,

While working with caption blocks on the timeline and manually editing them in the Program panel, I have noticed that the Text panel and the Graphics panel, by default, opens up while performing an operation that could be independent, especially in a custom workspace. To say another way, after the caption blocks are set from the transcript and text style, the only editing area that needs to be accessed is in the timeline (double clicking and/or rolling the caption blocks) and the text in the Program panel. There is no need for the Text panel and the Graphics panel to always be opened when editing captions. This can cause the playhead to freeze or skip, and by default overbloats the editing space (good thing I use a 42 inch long monitor!).

After checking various toggles in Preferences, I could not find anything apparent, but is there a way to keep the Text panel and the Graphics panels 'closed closed'? There is no need for these to always be opened when just working with the captions blocks between the Timeline and the Program panel.

Thank you for any help.

Wanted to clarify, meant to say double clicking the caption block in the Program panel (rather then double clicking the caption block on the timeline), to access the captions for manual editing in the Program panel. With this method, there is really no need for the Text panel and Graphics panel to always be opened by default, when everything else is already set, such as the text style, etc.

Greetings,

Figured out a nifty solution, and seems to also help keep the playhead from freezing or skipping so much. Basically, I undock the Text and Graphics panels and place them into a far corner, especially onto another monitor. This is mainly useful if you manually edit between the timeline and the Program panel and don't need the Text and Graphics panels on the scene, with everything else already set up (genreated captions and preset style, etc.).
