Having two windows side by side introduces lots of other problem: -It would bring back the jumping when switching views, because dockers would be hidden and shown all the time. -You can't have the dockers on one side of the screen as there are two different windows. -You need a good window manager, so that on splitting the windows appear side by side. Some of the problems with the current system are there because we tried to avoid those problems e.g. we switch the dockers internally to avoid the jumping. The problem you pointed out a purely implementation problems and not problems with the design of the UI. I don't think that we should change the UI just because the implementation isn't working. - Sven On July 18, 2011, 1:03 p.m., Boudewijn Rempt wrote: > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > This is an automatically generated e-mail.
