Bug: Search doesn't focus when open in a floating window

Sean · September 2023

Hi,

I often click on Search. Next I will right click the tab and Open in a floating window. However, it flashes for a split second and doesn't show the floating window. Basically I stay at the same place and I have to manually switch to the Search window.

Greetings Sean and welcome to the forums. For the most part you will find fellow users here who are willing to test things out and offer advice. Don't be a stranger.

I have tried your workflow myself on MacOS and Logos 28 but both the option to 'Float this Panel' from the three dot menu and the 'Open in a Floating Window' from the right click menu seem to work fine for me.

Perhaps you might tell us a little more about your installation?

Hi Mike,

Thanks for the response. I still have this problem. Process is:

Start Logos and it will open a Layout
Click the Magnifying glass icon and a Search tab will display on the current layout
Right click on the Search tab and select "Open in a floating window"
I see for a split second a refresh and i'm shown my current layout

I'm using Logos 28.2.43 on Windows.
