Too many property inspector windows
In LC 8.1.1, there's a way to let's open only one Property Inspector window? Often when I click an object, a new Property Inspector window appears, flocking my work area.

Re: Too many property inspector windows
Which Operating system are you using?
It certainly isn't doing that over "here": Xubuntu 16.04, 64-bit.

Re: Too many property inspector windows
Hi Paul,
could it be that your Inspector palettes are LOCKED?
Note the little "lock" symbol on the topright.
If yes, then a new window will be opened for any new "inspection".
If not, the palette will behave "dynamically" and only change its content
according to the selected object.

What Klaus said, and this is not peculiar to v8. It has always been that way.

yes, it was the "locked" of the property inspector that was set to true (involuntarily) by a little utility I've made to resize the window on startup.
Thanks for your help
