actually, as soon as you play something in the source viewer, the inspector window closes and the timeline viewer closes, so this doesn't help.

I can't remember my workflow, but it certainly worked for me.

<p>The current way to accomplish this is to either:</p>

<p>1) Toggle the menu [Workspace] > [Single Viewer Mode] </p>

<p>- or - </p>

<p>2) Toggle the [ ] / [][] button (top right of the viewer)</p>

<p><strong>NOTE:</strong> Resolve will only enable the options and allow the use of two viewers if it has enough screen space (<em>screen real estate</em>) to do so. And that is probably the reason why opening/closing the Inspector affected the dual view.</p>

<p>I was playing around with Resolve, and managed to show a second window thingy (the black one in the screenshot) via View > Source/Timeline Viewer. Now I can't seem to make it disappear. I have tried Workspace > Layout > Reset UI Layout, but it doesn't remove the second window. How can I remove it?</p>
