Arrows show the three windows/tabs I close to "get back" to the window layout that I prefer.

Using Netbeans daily for web application development, I keep starting, stopping, re-starting my web application from Netbeans VERY often.

Every single time, there are three windows popping up in my IDE: "Browser DOM", "Network Monitor" and "CSS Styles". I'm not using any of these, so I keep having to close them or change tabs to view the windows/tabs I actually use.

Attached image: Arrows show the three windows/tabs I close to "get back" to the window layout that I prefer.

I propose: either add an option to disable these windows from popping up when launching my web application, or prevent them from stealing focus from the tabs that are already open in a window/frame. Thank you.
