I like KiCad very much, especially because it keeps improving in both productivity and quality.
However, there is one thing that bothers me (is it a bug?) and it’s actually quite annoying.
The tear-off windows for the ‘Schematic Blocks’, ‘Properties’, ‘Schematic Hierarchy’, and ‘Net Navigator’ panels work fine, but sometimes they snap back into the main window. Also, when I restart KiCad, they return to their original positions inside the main window.
Why doesn’t KiCad preserve the panel locations across my displays?
I know that in other programs, like SketchUp, there are also issues with this, but maybe it’s something that could be fixed in KiCad.
So, is this a bug or simply not implemented yet?
If it’s the latter, should I submit a feature request somewhere?
