confused   Crashing on close, MacOS Catalina
Hi all,

I'm a quite reader of this forum and a happy user of SH3D for quite some time now.
For some reason, and I can't tell you what's changed, I've got an issue now that I'd like to describe and hopefully get some advice and help on.


Issue 1:
When having split view (3D view in separate window), then hitting the "x" to close the program it's not reacting anymore and after about 10-20sec "Force Quit Application" window on Mac says "not responding".
Waiting doesn't help, I can just kill the App by hitting "Force Quit".
The exact same thing also happens when I try to reattach the 3D view window to the main app window.

Question 1:
How I can reset (if possible ONLY) the setting that's responsible for starting with Split view where the 3D window is detached from the main window?
If I could do this I can probably avoid the problem for now.


Issue 2:
After starting SH3D again, it opens the old file with "<Filename>.sh3d [Recovered]" additionally to the file I'm opening on purpose.
This behaviour then adds up more and more SH3D windows over time, see screenshot.

Question 2:
Can I prevent SH3D from opening the additional [Recovered] file somehow?


My config:
MacOS Catalina 10.15.7 (19H2)
MacBook Pro 15" late 2018
2,2 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i7
32 GB 2400 MHz DDR4


Any ideas/workarounds are greatly appreciated as I'm in the middle of time critical planning for my house where I'm heavily relying on SH3D.

Thanks in advance for any comments or questions that can help.

Best,
iRoland
