What problem do you see this solving?
I have a two monitor setup:

• The main display is the bigger and better one which I would like to use in Viewer mode
  (tools, adjustment of photos,...).
• The second monitor is smaller and to the side so I would like to use it in grid mode
  (selection of photos, organization, library).

I would like to open a secondary window on the 2nd monitor and switch it to grid mode, but you are not allowed to do it, because it's called "Viewer Window"

The Thing is: Sometimes when I press "g" it happens accidentally to switch to grid and it's obviously a bug but I like it!

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?
all times

Are you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One?
Because now it's only a bug, I wait for it to happen and immediately save the workspace so I can reload it.

Are you happy to be contacted further about this suggestion or request?
Yes.

  I like how the phrase "it's not a bug, it's a feature" for once can mean something useful and enjoyable.

  I put an illustration in the original post to visualize what my goal is.

  As a workaround I saved the faulty state as a workspace preset to recall it.

  The problem why I don't use it often is, that it does not display file names, stars, colour labels...
