How to disable automatically showing the inspector window in Xcode 13 - xcode

When i hide the inspector window (normally shown on the right side of Xcode) and hover to the right edge of the Xcode Window, the inspector window automatically slides in. How can i prevent xcode from doing this and hide the inspector window permanent?

That is a normal behavior when you use Xcode in full screen mode. If you do not want the inspector to appear on hover, don't use full screen mode. (If you don't like this feature, file an enhancement request with Apple.)

Win32/C++: Program started minimized shows generic icon in taskbar flyout preview - how do I set my own image or fix it?

When you hover the mouse over taskbar buttons in Win10 you get a preview of that Window in a flyout. However if I start my program minimized it shows a generic icon (if I then restore it, the preview is updated and works minimized or not - so on startup is the key).
How do I have it show what the window will look like when restored or set my own image to use so this doesn't happen? It's okay if my own image is the only one that ever shows. I wouldn't mind disabling the preview on the flyout either (I do need the flyout because I use use toobar buttons on it).
I see ITaskbarList3::SetThumbnailClip() but that would have the same issue.
TIA!!
Found this is controlled by the DWM (Desktop Window Manager) via dwmapi. Examples of use is here

Use non-native fullscreen window mode in PhpStorm on macOS

How can I configure PhpStorm to use the "non-native" fullscreen mode? I'd like PhpStorm to be fullscreen (without the macOS top menu bar, etc), in the same window (without creating a new window that I have to scroll between).
The terminal for macOS iTerm2 have this setting. You can choose to remove the tick from "Native full screen windows". When this tick is removed, the fullscreen mode will simply take out all space in the window, without creating a new separate window.
Native fullscreen example
Notice how a new separate "window" is created called "PhpStorm"
Non-native fullscreen example
Notice how theres still one window called "Desktop". The iTerm window fills out the whole screen though.
the only way you can do it at the moment is by adjusting the dock in mac to hide menu automatically and then spread the editor to wider and higher setting
click right on the dock in mac and goto settings and hide menu works for me
i am suffering from same issue lol after i saw iterm2 :P

Disable the Xcode utilities panel auto-display feature

How do I disable the Xcode auto-display feature of the utilities panel (aka the far right pane that holds the identity inspector etc)?
In full screen mode (coding, not just in the storyboard) whenever my mouse curser gets moved all the way to the right of the screen, the utilities panel displays automatically. It is distracting and unwanted. If I need that panel I can click the button in the upper right to display it, or use a keyboard shortcut. It doesn't seem like anything else is autodisplaying, just the right side panel. Once I move the mouse away from it, the panel disappears again. Maddening I tell you.

How to show view controls in the new update of Xcode 12?

I have updated xcode to the latest version ( Version 12.0 (12A7209)) and I can't show the toggle icons that show/hide inspector, debug or navigator Area
How can I show them again?
For the navigator the button is now at the far left, or use Command 0.
For the inspector the button is now at the far right, or use Command Option 0.
Also, in full screen mode you can summon the inspectors as overlays by hovering at the side with the mouse. Very cool as it saves space.
For the debug area there is no button; use Shift Command Y.
Basically this is a good time to learn the keyboard shortcuts!

Intellij Maven Sidebar invisible when minimized on Mac OS

I am new to running IntelliJ on a Mac. On Windows, it's possible to "minimize" the Maven "toolbar" to the right edge of the screen:
On my Mac, minimizing this makes the bar disappear. Why is that? How can I change this?
Probably you've toggled tool windows view (this could be done by hitting Alt twice, or by clicking most-left bottom icon):
If you click this button, tool window bars and buttons are shown. At the same time the button, appearance toggles to show hide tool window bars. If you click the button again, the tool window bars and buttons are hidden again.
