Beyond the Basics Using a single instance of Inkscape workspace window?

    I wonder if there exist the option to use a single instance of the workspace, instead of multiple windows. I dont know if it make some difference in Ram or performance, but i found it more handy. Gimp works that way and i found more easy to found all im working in the same place, than multiple windows.
    If there is an option, let me know please. Thanks!

    IĀ“m not sure what you mean by "multiple windows"; floating tabs perhaps?

    Hi @Polygon. I mean to have all the different documents inside the same windows, similar to Gimp mode, instead of a different instance for each document, as you can see in the screenshot here

    On macOS I can have a "tabbed" Inkscape. Not sure how other OSs handle this:

    Oh, that`s great! i dont remember to see that in windows, dont know if there is an option for activate that, or is OS related.
