Multiples library windows (BUG)

I have already upgraded to Logos 8 and I have found something that I really do not know if it only happens to me, but in the Logos 7 version, using the CTRL + L command for the first time the floating window of the library was opened but from that moment each time you repeated the command, you were directed to the same window. Now in Logos 8 every time I use the command a new floating window opens and I really do not like to have a new window every time.

I hope it is something that can be solved.

    It is useful to put BUG: in front of your title when reporting a problem. It helps insure that the post is seen. You may be able to still edit the title (see edit under the More at the upper right of your post). Obviously, it isn't essential ... just a helpful hint.

    It doesn't just happen to you. Some people love the new behaviour (as it allows them to have multiple library windows open), some people hate it for the reasons.you've described. A possible solution might be for Faithlife to add an option to "Send Library panels here", as they do with search panels, but I've not heard whether that's under consideration.

    I love the ability to have multiple Library Windows. It can be useful on some occasions but I agree that it should not be the default. It would be better if the default was as L7 and there were an option similarly to Resources to Duplicate the Panel. It should be a tucked away option, not the default keyboard or menu options.
