window layout duplication

yesterday I changed the layout of the F7 QSO Information window. Today, when I started Log4om (latest version) I noticed that the layout of the F8 Recent QSO window, which I run detached, has altered and is a now a duplication of the layout of the F7 window. Is this behaviour normal ??? or is it a bug ??, or is it just me ?

I verify that this happens, another undocumented feature :D

PS because you have verified it, do you add it to the "features to be fixed" list, or do you need me to post it in the error reports forum ??

First I check with Lele to be sure that this behaviour is not unavoidable due to programming constraints

If he confirms that it is a coding deficiency I will then add it to our Mantis list

Due to the structure of the grid view, i'm able to assign different layouts to different grids. In some cases this layout can be shared between similar grids. In this case the file for the contacted stations is the ViewConfigurationContactedStationQSO.xml that resides in your roaming folder.
It's possible it reverted back to default, i will check... this is easy to do: if you change the layout in the contacted QSO the file ViewConfigurationContactedStationQSO.xml should fork into ViewConfigurationContactedStationQSO_user.xml and report a new creation/update date.
