AutoOpen Feature now works perfectly fine with Checkbox. Please Review and suggest changes @DianaLease @Michael-Grover @dselman :)

My comment would be to make it look like the mockup I shared here

I don't think a side drawer is necessary yet as we only have one setting.

For now let's put it here and if there are more settings in the future, we can consider a dedicated page or side drawer for them. image

However I still think we should consider shelving this feature. I looked at many Word add-ins on Friday to get a better understanding of common practices, and I didn't notice an auto-open feature in any of them.

Hi @Michael-Grover :) I think this feature would be useful for lawyers who would be using this Accord Project templates in word document and we don't want them to everytime they open the document to explicitly open the taskpane which would be pretty time consuming for laywers who frequently open the document in word. Also, through this feature we can create a base for developing another feature for prompting the user for installing the add-in if not already installed if he opens a document that uses AP templates. Would love to hear your feedback on this.

@Michael-Grover Changed the add-in to look like the one in the mockup and fixed the earlier issue discussed with @DianaLease on Slack :)
