Linked Sheets etc. open in popped out window #32

Closed Gondlar closed 3 years ago

Gondlar commented 4 years ago

When I pop out a journal entry which contains links to other entries/character sheets/.. and click on them to open them, their window opens in the popped out window rather than the main screen. 2020-10-28-115655_1247x521_scrot

I've seen a roughly similar issue (#20) being closed because it is expected behaviour. Let me detail why I consider this a bug:

Thanks for doing the research for old bugs ;) Not going to dismiss this one though because no, it's not expected behavior since popout was redesigned to prevent was what happening in #20 (which was a different use case). I have a 1 second window where if a dialog is opened within 1 second of clicking on a popout, that new dialog is moved into the popout because it was created from it. This was added in the recent update and was intentional however it was only supposed to work on dialogs, like the "which level you want to cast this spell" or "is it an ability check or saving throw", "confirm the short rest" or the file browser for a new avatar, those kinds of dialogs. It was never supposed to be for full "Application windows" like a second journal entry.

So yeah, it's a bug, not intended, will be fixed. Thanks for reporting it!
