A problem with docking the UV window - KartingKoopa - 03-18-2022

I'm not sure whether this counts as a bug or not, maybe there's a setting I'm unaware of, but here's what I ran into:

In the latest versions of Wings3D, I can no longer dock the UV-editor window into the main screen, it stays afloat and refuses to dock when I move the window around.

Here's what I know:
  • I use the Windows 64x version
  • It functions as normal in releases up to 2.2.6.1
  • The issue appears in 2.2.7 onwards
  • Only the UV-editor window refuses to dock, all other windows work normally

I have intentionally removed the possibility to dock "temporary" windows.
So not a bug, but not possible anymore.

Thank you for the reply, dgud.

Personally, I always have the UV window opened at all times, so not being able to dock it has been a bummer for me. I don't think the UV window should be considered temporary, as I use it almost as often as the main modelling window. Consider this a suggestion!

Again, thank you for the clarification.

Yeah but it caused random bugs when it was still docked when users closed wings and
then wings sometimes crashed when started.
Which I couldn't solve, sorry.

Ah, that's a shame, but I understand. Appreciate the honesty!
