Fusion frequently moving tab to new window

D-NGK — Mon, 22 Mar 2021 01:57:08 GMT

I have weird issue, since recently. In electronics, 80% if the times i select a tab, it moves this tab to a new fusions window.

This behaviour is incredible anoying and time consuming.

Any way to disable moving tabs to a new window completely?

It does this when you drag an electronics file tab out of the files-menu. (Click and hold, move the mouse, then release.) I can't find any way to switch this off. I guess it's one of these things where you'll have to be a bit carefull as a user. Like line drawing in mechanical designs tend to create arcs when you click to fast. (Try to explain that to the boss!)

Maybe you should propose the developers to make it less sensitive; now it starts happening when the cursor is dragged just outside of the tab-space. If you tend to hit the tabs on the bottom line and moving the cursor just 1 pixel down it will create a new window already.

I wonder why it only does this with electroncs files. I quite like the functionality, I would prefer this to be standard tabs behaviour. (Though maybe less sensitive.)

Hi @PinRudolf @D-NGK

I hope you are doing well!

Thanks for your post and bringing the issue to us.

The feature of MWMM (multi window multi monitor) is designed so that the users can drag the schematic and 2d PCB file out of the main window and put them in two monitors. It will be easier for the users who want to check schematic and 2d PCB file at the same time.

For the 'sensitive' issue, our develop team will do some fix for it. I will keep you updated when I get more information.
