OK, old message, but I’ve figured out what’s going on. In Sierra, a new option was added in a non-obvious location. In the System Preferences, under Dock, there is now an option called “Prefer tabs when opening documents.” It has three options: Always, In Full Screen Only, and Manually. Set it to Always, and the behavior I described above is enabled. -a _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
