Description jtherrmann1 2023-07-02 02:09:28 UTC
SUMMARY
Using the File menu to open a new or existing file replaces the current file. I would expect the new file to be opened in a new ghostwriter window.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a file with File > New, File > Open, or File > Open Recent.

OBSERVED RESULT
The file opens in the current ghostwriter window, replacing the current file.

EXPECTED RESULT
I would expect the file to open in a new ghostwriter window, so that I can use my window manager to cycle between ghostwriter windows.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux:  Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS
