Amerio.Stephane Posted December 17, 2025 Posted December 17, 2025 Hello, In 2.20, the debug Window (and the Debug view window) is restricted/confined to the main window. In previous version (at least up to 2.16...), these windows could be moved outside so they would not obstruct the main window. This feels like a strong usability regression. Is there any way to get the previous behavior back?
silent Posted December 18, 2025 Posted December 18, 2025 Hi Stephane, Indeed, this functionality was lost during the recent WindowManager refactoring, and so far we haven’t had sufficient time to restore it. We do have a task for this in our bug tracker, although it is currently marked as a low priority, so we don't really know when it would be done (for sure not in 2.21). This also for sure will break a fullscreen mode hw sync (via sync boards), since if you are running app in "true fullscreen" you can't create any additional windows that will be outside of the current one. For local quick tests and non-production runs, however, that should not be a huge deal, though. Could you please let us know if you would like us to address this sooner? In that case, we would need to adjust our plans and prioritize it accordingly. Thank you!

Amerio.Stephane Posted December 18, 2025 Author Posted December 18, 2025 This is really not a priority, more of an annoyance (albeit a strong one). Surely, it would not be possible in real fullscreen mode, but now that I think of it, the current mode (confined) is the only one that would work in this case, so maybe don't get rid of it totally but just restrict this confined mode for the real fullscreen when you got time to work on it. I was hoping that would be simply an undocumented console variable... Oh well, I'll wait 1
