Any way to overcome this, ie without having to type that T option? I know it's a minor thing, but if it can be fixed, great! Thanks.

I've made a keyboard shortcut for the Ribbon command (set to Ctrl+R), that way I can toggle it on/off quickly before creating / editing hatches.
Edit: Here's the macro code:
Code:
^P^C^C(command (if (= (getvar 'RibbonState) 0) "._RIBBON" "._RIBBONCLOSE"))
