Understood. Old habits die hard. :-)

Interesting...when I first looked for the menu item you mentioned, my software didn't show it. After changing application focus, checking help, and flipping various things on and off, the menu item decided to show itself. And sure enough, my PowerBook was set in the "separated" mode. Many thanks for the help on this one.

Hi Everyone,
I'm new to the forum and Affinity Designer. Truth be told, I'm not an artist either, but I am completely enthralled by Affinity products, and I want to learn more what they can do for me. As I stumble along, I recently ran into a windowing problem. I've noticed, too, there is a difference between my PowerBook and iMac in this regard. Here's what happens.
When I open a new document on my iMac, Affinity draws the window and anchors it to the toolbar. From there, I can navigate my canvas, and everything works just as I would expect. However, I have a different experience on my PowerBook. When I create a new document on my PowerBook, Affinity creates the document as a floating window. Each new document I create does this. I found the feature to collapse the windows, and this helps. It solved only part of my problem. I want to have my PowerBook behave just like my iMac. I'd like Affinity to open new documents and ground them to the toolbar just like my iMac does. If I use Apple's maximize button, Affinity windows (i.e., documents) expand but are behind the Affinity application. When I save a document, the Affinity toolbar covers the "Save As" dialog, and I can't see or access the dialog controls.
I've search long for some kind of setting, but I can't find one. Has anyone else experienced this problem, and more importantly, does anyone know how I can fix this problem.
Thanks in advance...

Ha! Here is one for you (and the other die-hard Mac fans out there): my license plate is "RESEDIT." Every now and then someone will stop me and talk Mac stuff with me. It's a joke that most of the younger Mac fans don't get.
