Library not opening in floating window by default with Ctrl+L

It's only a minor issue, but it's different from L5. In L5 pressing Ctrl+L (in Windows 7) opened the Library in a floating window. Now, it opens the Library in one of a number of existing panes (not always the same one). This is not great when it opens it in a small pane. Can this be changed to work as it did under L5? Thanks.

This was noted late in beta testing and I know the developers are looking at it - but I haven't heard anything yet about a fix

Hi Graham, that's great - it looks like it'll be addressed (hopefully) at some stage then. [:)]

I've had this problem too and reported it. Logos cannot reproduce it internally, but hopefully the fact that several people are experiencing this will encourage them to work at finding a way to reproduce it and solve it. I provided them a screencast and log files.

I wonder if it's related to a problem I reported quite a while back that "Ctrl-L" wouldn't respond at all if you started L5 and the focus ended up in a certain place. I don't recall what place or type of placed the focus would be in, but I got in the habit of clicking in a resource pane after starting L5 so that I knew Ctrl-L would work at all. It was if certain controls/locations didn't allow the keystroke to works its way up the hierarchy to something that knew how to handle it.

In L5 pressing Ctrl+L (in Windows 7) opened the Library in a floating window. Now, it opens the Library in one of a number of existing panes (not always the same one).

This is also a problem in the Mac version where CMD-L now opens Library in a docked panel with no keyboard command to open it in a floating window.

Just checked my install of Verbum 6 on Win7 PC and Ctrl-L opened the library in a floating window:

Verbum 6.0 SR-1

6.0.0.3721

Same problem for me-the library opens docked with the command-L on my Mac.

Same problem with me in windows SR3

This is now happening on my system as well.

If I remember correctly, I opened my library from a search panel under Library Resources > Library (following a Search > Everything query) and the Library opened into a panel. Since then, every time I invoke the Library, it opens to a panel, rather than a floating window.

Not sure it was the cause, but as I remember it the before and after behavior began at this point.

Thanks; I can reproduce the problem by following these instructions (and have added them to the bug report).

Fixed in 6.0a RC1 on Windows. (Note: This will be fixed on Mac in a later release.)

Confirmed fixed on Windows. Thanks!

Is this update generally available? I tried to update and there were no updates available...[*-)]

It works fine now (Windows). That's great. Thanks.
