How to tell a new tab where to open?

I know this is a long discussion but I would like to know more about the auto-location where a tab opens when clicking on a resource from the library or search.

I like to have two full-screen windows open for Logos but when I am in one and am opening a new tab it always opens the new tab in the other window which I am not in. This is extremely annoying. I have tried many different things to try to force Logos to open the new tab somewhere else. I read that Logos tries to find similar tabs, so I have done everything to make it not want the other window, even having the same resource open in both windows, but it will still want to open in the other window. I know that I can drag the tab instead of clicking on it but I would like to know if there is anything I can do to allow me just to click. Is there a way to signal where I want new tabs to go to just like the function of "send hyperlinks here" for a single resource?

Does anyone have more understanding about the rules for the auto-location for a new tab?

If I have two tabs opened, one to the left and one to the right, I do the following: If I want a tab or book to open to the right I click on the tab that’s opened to the left and vice versa. By clicking on a tab it makes it “active” so by default the new tab opens to the tab that is not “active.”

Yep … way back when, it used to be pretty decent on where tabs will open. Now, it's Katy bar the door.

I have 6 windows. It really likes window #4. Coding-wise, I figure it gives up at window #4.

I normally do a right-click>window (at open), and then drag the tab to the far-right, find the correct window, and drag the new tab in. Time after time.
