Pop-up plots in currently open session window/desktop #22

Open helenkirk opened 4 years ago

This may not be possible, as it may be default casa behaviour, but just in case...

Some CASA scripts include sections where various diagnostic plots open in new graphics windows. At the moment, these diagnostic plots pop up in whichever of the 4 linux-style desktop windows the user is sitting in [I may not have the right terminology here... I'm referring to the 4 boxes one can switch between on the upper right hand of arcade]. If a user is running multiple casa scripts in different containers in different desktops, they may have some trouble keeping track of which pop-up plot belongs to which casa container. If it is possible to tie the location of the pop-up plot to the same desktop as the container occupies, that would probably be an advantage.
