Bug: Resources open in the opposite Tile with v8.3
Resources and Tools that are opened from a menu now open in the RHS tile instead of the LHS tile e.g. Program Settings, Notes

This behavior has not changed in 8.3. The location in which resources and tools open is not fixed, but instead can vary depending on what other panels you have open, the locations of those panels, and which panel is active when you try to open a new panel.

I haven't changed my layout, but tools now want to open in the RHS tile no matter what is open.

Posting a screenshot of your layout would help, since I'm completely unable to recreate this behavior.

I'm seeing the same behavior with daily devotionals opened from cards on the dashboard, which used to open LHS.

Dave,
I'm not able to reproduce this. For me Program Settings and Notes open on LHS unless something is already open there, if there is already a panel open on the LHS then it will open on the RHS. This is the same behavior I reproduced in 8.2. Can you provide a screenshot or even a screencast? This might help us see what is going on.

Joshua,
What OS version are you using? On Windows uisng 8.2 when I open a Devotional from a Home Page card it opened on the RHS, this is the same behavior on 8.3. Was there a specific devotional you remember opening on the LHS? As I said I cannot reproduce this.

Program Settings and Notes open on RHS on Desktop v8.3 (used to be on LHS)
Laptop and Desktop have the same layout, but with different names (Laptop Study vs. Desktop Study). The last panel icon is for DBL Greek.
But Program Settings and Notes open on LHS on Laptop v8.3.
The NIV 2011 (in Command box) will open on LHS on both computers.

Dave,
The layout you show doesn't have any of the panels you mention. Can you do a screencast showing how each is opening up?

They consistently open after the last panel icon of the RHS tile
Program Settings was opened first, then Notes

Dave,
What panel were you clicked on before you opened the panel? A screencast would really help in trying to reproduce this.

You would need many. I have tried with each panel being active, and with different combinations of a LHS and a RHS panel being 'active'. But all Tools that open on a full tile, open on the RHS. It doesn't matter if they are opened from Tools menu or the Command box (Show ....).

I'm on macOS 10.14.3 using Verbum.
Here's a screen cap of opening several devotionals, they all open RHS, even if I drag one over to LHS and close.

Hi Joshua,
I double checked on both Logos and Verbum running 8.2 and they both had devotionals open on the RHS. So far I can find no change in behavior between 8.2 and 8.3 in how devotionals open up.

Dave,
I'm sorry, but I am not able to reproduce this. On a blank layout what happens when you open Notes or a Tool? For me they open on the LHS. This is why a screencast would be helpful to make sure we are doing exactly what you are doing.

Philana,
I loaded a similar Laptop Study layout, and the expected behavior returned! Then I loaded a version of the Desktop Study layout from Feb 15, and all is back to normal. For good measure, I loaded an Application Closed layout from yesterday, and tools open on the RHS.
So I'm back with an older version of my Desktop Study layout where tools open on the LHS.

That is good to know.

But puzzling, as the older layout is exactly the same as the problem layout (and ditto for the Laptop layout, except that was saved with the different resolution of a laptop screen).
