New Window in Workspace

When I have a workspace open, and then I open a new resource, say a commentary, how to tell Logos that I always want the new window opening in a certain place. 

Right now, my workspace has a smaller window at the bottom of the workspace and all my new windows open on that small resource area instead of opening in one of the larger resource areas and so I have to click and drag everytime to the  larger resource area. Hope this makes sense.

    Alas, this has always been a challenge for users...Logos wants to automatically figure out where to put stuff and it tends to do alright in many cases (e.g., it usually puts commentaries with commentaries). I've wanted a way to "lock" a panel so that it would not be able to put resource in that panel automatically.

    The only way to guarantee where a resource goes is to manually drag it there when you are opening it. I.e, drag the resource from the Library or the Passage Guide, etc.

    And it's more than what panel position (and the right default seems odd).  When you have multiple windows, it never places a clicked reference on the same window.  My journals window always seems to attract new resources; dictionaries never. Nor monographs.  Seems to be a very limited 'rule'.  So, it's drag and drop, no exceptions.
