Toolbox Disappears

I'm using 2.8.4 in multi windows mode fullscreen. Sometimes the toolbox will disappear. I have to hit my Windows key and then click on Gimp in the Windows toolbar to make it come back.

I'd really like to have an option to dock the toolbar and have the dialogs open in new windows. I keep my screen real estate maximized. My tool box is 2 columns wide and squashed to the limit. Not only is it an extra step to undock dialogs in single window mode, I have to widen my toolbox to get to the tab to drag the box.

I am in no way upset about any of this. Gimp has saved me a few hundred dollars.

You may find the tab key brings it back. If not, try Windows->Recently Closed Docks

Linux might save you even more :-)

Best,

Oh, I see I can hit Ctrl+B to bring it back. However, I'd still like it to not leave.

Sorry if I missed the button to edit my post, but I didn't see one.
