Igor opens every graph at startup (all, not just the graph macros), how to fix that

Moodhound
I'm having problems with my igor file. at startup it opens every window I've ever created. not just the macros. how can i stop this? it's really annoying ;-)
thanks for help
It also executes any commands in the main procedure window that appear before the first function or macro definition. Choose Windows->Procedure Windows->Procedure Window and see if there is text at the start of the file that should not be there.

The way you say, "every window I've ever created" suggests that you are using just one experiment file every time you run Igor. You might try keeping more than one file as you work.

I know, it shouldn't open these windows. I've made multiple macros and of course some waves withou names and without generating a macro.
EVEN IF I CLOSE every window, it is opening again at startup.
in my procedure-file (just an example):
So the problem is for example: it opens the graph Heizkurve_1() Heizkurve_2() Heizkurve_3() and so on. (even though there is just one macro "heizkurve")
so every graph i've ever created....
during opening the experiment it runs the macro "experiment recreation". could this cause this properties?
thanks
and i'll create multiple files for my experience, thanks for the advice

What happens when you keep only those function calls that you absolutely want to run at startup?
You can always find a graph window macro from the Window menu list when you want to display it.

Can you tell us why you have those calls at the top of the main procedure window?

Have you closed (killed) those windows and then saved the experiment?
