Startup, links and toolbar behavior

Choose where boomation opens and what its toolbar button does.

On this page

Choose the starting view

A fixed destination also controls Full Popup (workspace and page) and quick search (workspace). In previous-location mode, Full Popup and quick search remember their own last locations independently. Reopen each surface to verify; changing the workspace during use does not replace a fixed startup destination.

  1. Open Settings and plans → General settings.
  2. Under the startup-view setting, choose the previous location or a fixed destination.
  3. For a fixed destination, choose the workspace and page, or All bookmarks where available.
  4. Open the main page again to confirm the starting location.

Choose the starting view and Full or Quick toolbar behavior in this settings area.

Choose Full or Quick

Toolbar button behavior → Full opens a compact collection browser. Quick opens the current-page saving form. Choose Full if you frequently retrieve links while browsing, or Quick if capturing the current page is the usual task. The right-click save action and save-bookmark shortcut still invoke quick saving.
