How do I make the Find window not follow me between spaces?

Post by jdc »

I am using TexShop Version 3.48.1 on a MacBook Pro running OS X Mavericks.

When I Command+F to make a Find window, that window follows me between spaces/desktops (or whatever they're called now), so when I try to switch to the space where I have my TeX document open, I instead just switch to the Find window, which simultaneously lives in all my spaces, and I have to either close it and try again or navigate manually back to my document. This happens to me on average a dozen times a day. What can I do?

Hi, just want to welcome you in our little community.

I cannot really say something on the topic, as i don't use Mac. Does that only happen with TeXshop? If yes, you should have a look at the developer page.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

Hi Johannes, thank you for your kind welcome. The somewhat ridiculous answer to your question is that I am not sure if this happens for other programs, as as far as I can recall, TeXShop is the only one I use with a separate "Find" window not integrated into the main document window. Do you know of some obvious way to test this?
