To summarize the outcome of this thread,
the "Windows" menu on the Glade main
window should look just like this to be
complete and for maximum usability:

+--------------------------------------------+
 Windows                       
+--------------------------------------------+
| [check] Show Palette              |
|            Raise Palette               |
| [check] Show Propery Editor    |
|            Raise Property Editor   |
| [check] Show Widget Tree       |
|            Raise Widget Tree       |
| [check] Show Clipboard          |
|            Raise Clipboard           |
+--------------------------------------------+
|          Close All                       |
+--------------------------------------------+

Best Regards,
