Wish Multi-instance WYSIWYG auto-update

[Cableguy]

Hi EREL,

I sometimes open 2 or 3 layouts at the same time, in order to copy views from one to another witout having to re-format the whole view (or set of views), and I was un-aware that having multi-instannces of the designer open blocked the ability of the WYSIWYG to auto-update.
So my wish has 2 parts...
1- if possible, get rid of this limitation
or
2- when having more than one visual designer open, warn that he WYSIWYG will not auto-update, or only let one of the visual designer instances take control at a time, being necessary to connect and disconnect the Designer from the WYSIWYG window.

The WYSIWYG window should show the layout of the currently focused designer window. Are you opening the same layout file multiple times?

Actually I had an identical layout but from different origins, different folders and projects.

When I have one single designer open, all works well!

You can open multiple instances of the designer in the same project. Currently it will not work if you open multiple B4J instances.

Therefore my wish!
