3.1.6.2 Per-window control of re-use
When the
Reuse all tools
option is on, tools windows are reusable by default. However, it is possible to specify that a particular instance of a tool is not reusable. To make your Inspector not reusable, follow these steps:
-
Ensure that the
Reuse all tools
option is checked under
Tools > Preferences....
-
In the Inspector window, open the menu
Tools > Customize
and deselect the
Reuse Inspector
option. On Microsoft Windows, the name of the tool follows
Reuse
in the name of the option.
-
Now try
Tools > Inspector
. A new Inspector window is created.
The
Reuse all tools
option is persistant, but the per-tool setting
Reuse Inspector
applies only to the current instance of the tool, and it does not affect future sessions.
