So I am a regular Macbook user using Studio One with external computer monitors, in which I frequently move detached windows between those monitors. I also have to frequently unplug my mac from the dock that powers my monitors, but when I open Studio One and open the Console (in detached mode) or another window, it loads the window by default to the very right edge of the screen, in which I cannot drag the window to the center because there are menu buttons at the top of the window that prevent me from grabbing the edge. Additionally there is no way to manually scale native Studio One windows and plug-ins, making it nearly impossible to edit plug-ins and other Console functions like expanded channel strip sends/inserts/etc. I would like Studio One to be able to have the option to show all detached windows in the center of the main display, if possible. This is mainly a quality of life feature, but for people that frequently switch between external displays and the macbook display, it would improve on-the-go editing and mixing.
