Could you give me a link please? The Godot editor itself can't do multi-window and I haven't found a clear explanation on how to do that in the games either.

I use the non-dotnet version of Godot, I'm not happy with the confusing licensing Microsoft has put around .NET [1]. If anything, I'll go the gdextension route, but it hasn't been painful enough yet to do that. For a UI you couldn't ignore the typing system since you'd need to feed the data into it and read from it a lot.

- neonsunset 3y agoI think it’s an imagined problem and in practice no one has it. Just stop worrying and start deploying :)

I think the functionality for multiple windows was added before this release but here's the 4.1 notes that you can open the code editor/other stuff in other windows: https://godotengine.org/article/godot-4-1-is-here/#editor https://godotengine.org/article/godot-4-1-is-here/#editor I just tried it and it seems to work.
