strange behavior using multi-monitors

My personal workaround at the time was to use View > New view in that first window to make Gimp open a second window on the image, and then close the initial one.

But your post made me re-check the problem, and I can't reproduce it on my current Gimp version (3.1.5)

3.1.5?? You are forward in time, haha. I have the 3.0.4 stable, maybe you refer to 3.1.2?

Anyway, the issue with the docks is NOT related TO MULTI-MONITORS. It happens even you have all in the same display. When you click on any dock, the first opened image is brought to front. I made a little video about it:

Look at the title bars, they show how i click on the dock, and inmediately the first windows popup to front.

Sorry, I meant 3.1.3 (I compile Gimp from latest source)

I never mentioned multi-monitors? It's all about being in multi-windows (obviously a mode the Gimp devs don't use much).

And when I had the problem I did View > New view in the initial window (normally the one with image id "1.0"(*), so "Rosas Pintadas" for you) which gives a second window on the same image (that will show as "1.1" when the original one is "1.0"), and close the original window ("1.0").

(*) In 1.0, 1 is the image id, and 0 is a view id, 0 being assigned to the first view. You can have several views on the same image (especially useful if they are a different zoom levels, or using different display filters), they are updated in sync. As long as there is one view the image is kept open by Gimp.
