Generally I'm more on Louigi's side of the argument here. I find lots of
windows opening by default distinctively annoying. However, there are
obviously use cases, such as with multiple workspaces or monitors. I'd
prefer this to be user configurable though.
The UI toolkit I use for Praxis LIVE starts off as single window, but
allows the user to drag features around inside the main window, or outside
into a new window. Surely that's a feature of most UI toolkits that support
MDI, and actually meets both requirements above?
Best wishes,
