good. I hope we can get it out of the way and focus on a proper multi-window solution, then. the problem with the current multi-window is that it docks plenty of fuctionality into tabs. the tabs must have the same size. Sometimes I want a big surface - e.g. when clicking control points in the CP tab. All other tabs could be much smaller palettes, freeing valuable screen space. I would suggest freeing the tabs and calling them for what they are: palettes. I'd start with all palettes but the assistant invisible. I'd add a context menu with the list of palettes. whenever I right-click with the mouse (except inside images in the CP editor) the list of palettes appear and I can make one of the palettes visible at that specific place. Another way to call up the palettes would be clicking inside the fast preview - e.g. selecting two images will bring up the CP editor between them; selecting a single image and right-clicking it will open the palette selected in the context menu with that specific image pre-selected. Default, for the simple usage, will be the Assistant and the Fast Preview. The main application window will be dual mode: either "Assistant" or "Expert". Need to think a bit more how to fit in the current "Stitcher" tab and the new "Framing" tab into the main application window. just a quick memory dump - not a completely thought through solution.
