Floatable windows for separate graphs

Hello,

When you have 2 different graphs open, saved as different projects, they appear each one on a separate tab in the view-port.

Often, as I’m in a learning phase, I would like to make a duplicate of a graph while I’m working on it, to have it visible beside the other, so I can compare the structure of one graph and the results of changes simultaneously while I’m making them, with the other, while i can keep that other one “safe”, or make different modifications.
It is possible to make a duplicate inside the same graph, but that gets uncomfortable depending on the quantity of nodes, because one has to zoom out much more to see it all together. All these nodes together get quite small.

I’m lucky to have two displays. For users with more than one display, I think it would be very practical that separate graph windows would also be floatable, so they can be pulled to a second screen for much easier simultaneous comparison and working comfort, in addition to the current tab system that shows one graph at a time.

I think it also can help a lot with a single screen, because if you can se one graph beside the other in separate windows simultaneously it enables you to pan each graph separately, and test and compare sections side by side easily.

Thank you, and all the best!

Thanks @tractbsa for your feature request! I’ll pass it along internally.

As for viewing the contents of one graph at the same time as the other, have you tried the Canvas Snapshot feature? You can find it from the Canvas menu in the main menubar. This could allow you to take a screenshot of one graph and have it visible on your other display while adjusting the other one. While it’s not a full solution as only one of them is interactive, perhaps that might help in the meantime?

Thanks again!
