Stop fighting Daz Studio's broken floating panels on dual and multi-monitor setups!
By default, Daz Studio's "Make Pane Undockable" creates sub-windows trapped inside Daz Studio's legacy window manager: they lack Maximize/Minimize buttons, vanish off-screen when mixing 4K and 1080p monitors with different Windows DPI scaling, and cannot detach a single tab without breaking your entire tab group.
TRUE UNDOCK v1.2 fixes all of this at the native C++ level.
=====
MAJOR UPDATE v1.2 — WHAT'S NEW & FIXED!
=====
(Note: If you have seen or tested the older v1.0 legacy build, v1.2 is a complete architectural overhaul!)
- NEW! Single-Tab Undocking ("True Undock Tab"): Pull out JUST one specific tab (e.g., Surfaces, Parameters, Scene, Timeline) into a standalone OS window without detaching the rest of the group! (v1.0 could only undock entire groups).
- NEW! Exact Re-Dock Memory: Click the [X] button on any floating window and it automatically snaps back into its exact original dock column, width, and tab group!
- NEW! 1-Click Automatic Windows Installer (.exe): No more manual DLL folder hunting. Double-click "Install_TrueUndock.exe" and you are ready in 2 seconds.
- FIXED! Windows 10/11 Native Dark Mode Title Bars (fixes the blinding white title bars from v1.0).
- FIXED! Multi-Monitor Focus & Mixed-DPI Stability: Choose whether floating windows stay visible on your second screen when you Alt+Tab to Photoshop/Blender, and prevent off-screen coordinate glitches on 4K + 1080p setups.
