@Diana_227 Though, I feel obliged to add that being able to open separate windows could be quite useful especially considering the increasing use of multiple desktops. An example use case is that in a desktop, you have your personal notes and a website open in a browser; in another desktop, you open your work-related notes and websites.
As the person who posted the feature request about sidebars, I will say I would value having both. Sidebars and multiple windows would, in my view, be nice to have. However I would be happy enough with one or the other, with my preference being for sidebars rather than multiple windows (I can explain why, but it’s probably just a personal preference thing).
I think it’s important to note that multi-window and sidebar both need the ability to interact fully with content no matter where it is opened. So for example being able to drag-drop from main content window to sidebar content, or from one window to another. If this is not possible, or is significantly more difficult with one approach vs. another, then I would suggest you prioritize the approach that allows the best interaction between the multiple different content/edit areas.
@Diana_227 I’d like to make a request for multiple panels, which I think is different from what is being proposed here. Let me know if you agree.
From what I understand this post is requesting multiple application windows. What I’d like is multiple panels - each fully featured, essentially acting as it’s own “application”, but all within a single application instance. I’d also like to be able to resize and reposition these panels (note I’m not talking about floating panels/windows - just multiple subdivisions of the main application window). Remnote has this feature.
PS: I realize this thread also mentions a sidebar, which in my understanding is a specialized type of panel (usually limited to a certain position, for example). I’d rather just have each panel be fully featured/configurable.
+1, it’s very exhausting to switch contexts every few seconds for example taking meeting notes and having to create objects at the same time for tasks is a good workflow example.
Indeed, this feature is a must have to any productive worker. This way I could manage to open an visually arrange many Anytype window on many computer screen at the same time.
Please implement this before the official release!
Convenient as in. they open almost instantly and in the same place and order every time. This is especially important if you use more than two at the same time.
When it comes to windows management, I have no experience with Mac OS. Win 11 got some new features, but I figure that it’s’ still a pain. Linux is pretty great though.
