Hiding Comment List Pane on Intitial View

I have a form that was created in Live Cycle designer that I recently revised, and now the comments list is automatically opening at the bottom each time the form is opened. I've selected "Hide the comments list" (and re-saved the pdf.) which makes the box disappear from the current view, but it reappears the next time the form is opened. How can I set it up so the comments list doesn't appear each time upon opening? The document was already set up with the "Initial View" tab on "Page Only" for the Navigation Tab option. Thank you.
