Question: Is there a way to work with multiple databases in separate windows?
Scenario: I open Devonthink. App opens with the database I last was working on (Database 1). Now, I want to work concurrently with Database 2, without having to toggle between the two databases via Side Bar. Instead, I’d like to have Database 2 have its own separate dedicated window.
Is that possible?
I recognize that there are ways of working with multiple files within a database via Tabs. But I need a solution at the inter-Database level.
Thank you!
For reference, here is the screenshot of my Menu Bar “Window” :
Workspaces are super undervalued - this is one of the super powerful UI features in DT! Best for the optimization of highly flexible but potentially overwhelming UI, depending on the use-case and current use.
I use workspaces to transform DT into super flexible but also super minimalistic writing app - focus on one db, no left UI console. When I need full power and multiple dbs, I use another workspace, with all UI capabilities like inspectors.
I don’t think that this request is related to DT at all, as it (nor any other app) can’t influence what Apple’s window manager does. You probably have some kind of software installed on one machine that groups the windows for your (or perhaps that’s a global macOS preference somewhere) and this software is not on the other machine (or you have a different global preference there).
Right-click one in the sidebar and notice the first command: New Window.
