I'd agree with the OP that Ardour should provide a way to recover
torn-off windows if they ever get lost off-screen or otherwise.
an excellent and seemingly obvious idea. i'll add it today.
After reading Fons' mail I was about to reply that one could
simply save the initial view and then later on restore it.
But, to my astonishment, 'goto view ...' doesn't restore UI state.
I have to admit that I never used views before, but wouldn't that
be the mechanism to use?
the definition of what a "view" is can be subject to quite a bit of
variation. it does not (currently) include every aspect of window
configuration but is mostly about track visibility, zoom level, timeline
position and vertical scroll.
