    $\begingroup$ verified that adding the option to the inside of the call to CreateDocument did not work; it seems necessary to add the option after-the-fact with a call to SetOptions. $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 13, 2016 at 18:10
  • $\begingroup$ @Reb.Cabin I suppose adding whatever option works then. $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 13, 2016 at 18:31
  • $\begingroup$ @Reb.Cabin, yes I expected the option to work directly in CreateDocument. Not sure if it's this way by design or a bug. $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 13, 2016 at 18:41
  • $\begingroup$ @SimonWoods The fact that dialog is prompted doesn't seem be related to that specific option but to the fact that you are modifying the notebook. You can use SetOptions[nb, Background -> Red] and it will be equally good, except the fact of the red background ;). $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 14, 2016 at 7:42
  • $\begingroup$ SimonWoods no wait, @Reb.Cabin wants an automatic solution and it is such. Just rephrase it. $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 14, 2016 at 7:48
