linqpad 6 - is it possible to open a new query in an existing window?

in General

In linqpad 6 I seem to be getting lots of new windows where I think I was getting new tabs in existing windows in linqpad 5.

Unless I'm missing something..

    LINQPad recycles the window when you browse through queries in the 'My Queries' TreeView. Otherwise, it opens them in a new tab.

    I think I wasn't quite clear. I am talking about new windows of linqpad being launched ( not about new tabs within ).

    Running from a folder with two linqpad files in the command prompt. I waited a little time between commands just in case.

    No linqpad windows open.

    This scenario opens one linqpad window with two documents:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\LINQPad5\LINQPad.exe" "Text1.linq"
    ...wait for it to open
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\LINQPad5\LINQPad.exe" "Text2.linq"

    This scenario opens two separate windows with just one document in each:
    "C:\Program Files\LINQPad6\LINQPad6.exe" "Text1.linq"
    ...wait for it to open
    "C:\Program Files\LINQPad6\LINQPad6.exe" "Text2.linq"

    @JoeAlbahari - wondering if you saw my comment above? Seems to be new buggy behaviour in linqpad6 vs linqpad 5

    @JoeAlbahari - is this supposed to be in 6.8.3? Or what build number would it be in?

    It's in the 6.9.x builds (currently in beta).

    Thanks Joe. I waited until I saw the new update.

    To me it seems to work for x64 but not x86.

    This gave me two windows:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32>"C:\Program Files\LINQPad6\LINQPad6-x86.exe" "C:\Users\Derek.Morin\Google Drive\LinqpadShared\LINQPad Queries\TextManipulation\PowerReplace45.linq"

    C:\WINDOWS\system32>"C:\Program Files\LINQPad6\LINQPad6-x86.exe" "C:\Users\Derek.Morin\Google Drive\LinqpadShared\LINQPad Queries\TextManipulation\PowerReplace46.linq"

    These both opened in the same window:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32>"C:\Program Files\LINQPad6\LINQPad6.exe" "C:\Users\Derek.Morin\Google Drive\LinqpadShared\LINQPad Queries\TextManipulation\PowerReplace46.linq"

    C:\WINDOWS\system32>"C:\Program Files\LINQPad6\LINQPad6.exe" "C:\Users\Derek.Morin\Google Drive\LinqpadShared\LINQPad Queries\TextManipulation\PowerReplace45.linq"

    I'm glad I tested both, maybe there is some difference in the code for the different exe names.

    @JoeAlbahari - just checking to see if you saw my comment about x86. Thanks for getting it working in x64.

    I'll probably test it whenever I get automatic updates of linqpad.
