I received a chartbook from a customer that had a detached window with no title bar that was showed maximized on my 2nd monitor. It took a lot of steps to restore the window, resize it and move it to my primary monitor. I was able to use the handy "windows and chartbooks" dialog to attach this window back to Sierra main app window, enable the Show Title Bar setting and move the window around, but did notice that some combinations of turning Title Bar on/off and detaching left the window with just the border which I could double-click and it maximized the window this returning it to the "difficult to move/restore" state. I believe I have saved the attached chart book in such a state where the single chart should show maximized and difficult to control (restore, move, resize). Raising this issue to you for tracking if this does indeed present an edge use case with window management, MDI, detached, etc. Wondering if detached windows should be allowed to have the Title Bar off. Have not fully thought all the implications of that nor the full Sierra designs for this area. More insights. I WAS able to Restore the window via Keyboard (an old Windows trick if you will for windows off screen when you have a smaller screen than last saved position): Use keyboard CTRL-Spacebar and the Windows title bar context menu appears and from there you can choose Restore and move the windows, but you still need "windows and chartbooks" dialog to re-attach it. I wonder if the Title bar is really there but sized super small and not "visible aka showing the text". Date Time Of Last Edit: 2026-01-02 23:38:40
