Hi. Im using Gimp with three monitors, in windows. I located the canvas at middle screen, and tools at left, layers and other docks at right. Similar to the Single-window mode. All is ok meanwhile you work in a single image. But when you open a second image, a new canvas is open (sometimes in the right monitor) Ok, i move the windows to the middle display. The issue is that the floating docks appear attached to the FIRST image. When i click the layers dock, inmediately the FIRST image i opened is brought to the front, even the layers of the second image are displayed in the right. The same happens each time you click any floating dock: The first image is brought to the front.
I dont know if is a bug, but certainly it dont happens in the single-windows mode.
Thinking about this, would be cool to have floating windows meanwhile you have a single canvas with tabs, like in single-windows mode.
Any idea what is happening?
Below, and screenshot, you can see that the second image is focused in layers, meanwhile the first image is displayed in canvas.
Hi to myself, ha. I found a workaround. I activated the single-windows and resized Gimp across the three monitors, making Canvas occupy all the middle display. It works great (even i can use all the left monitor, but whocares) BUT, when you close Gimp and open it again, it become open in the left display. With the size and distribution of docks i set, but all at the left. I just drag the window to the correct position, and all is ok.
it is less annoying than the behavior i described in the first post, since i open Gimp once, and it keeps open while working.
BUT i believe that this issues need to be adressed, since they are quirk, and multimonitors setup are very common today.
Here is an screenshot of the single-windows mode across three screens.
