    I can float mine, just running on a single laptop screen, and updated to Dorchester this morning.

    Seems to work when I grab the bottom of the multiduck when docked to the bottom of the screen. I don't normally do it myself, so I'm not sure if it was any different before.

    I can still float it too, either by the Undock icon in the lower right part of the screen or by dragging the bottom border as Kamikaze described.

    The buttons for the docking options of the multidock are sometimes misplaced. They may be on top of the expand/collapse button, left of it, or missing (probably being placed too much on the right side). Usually, just opening and closing some tabs in multidock will get them to the correct place again. (This was already an issue before the D-release.)

    When I have for example the Console in the Multidock and take it over to my second monitor the Multidock remains as a single bar across the track view in the first monitor and won't come over to my second monitor.

    I used to have the ability to select Float Multidock but that option is no longer there.

    Trying things suggested in previous post don't work. There simply isn't any option available for me to Float the Multidock.

    If I roll back to Cambridge it's there go forward to the new release and bam, gone.

    So it's specifically to floating on a second screen. Does it still float on your main screen. I don't have a second screen to try, but it does float on my main screen.
     
    Have you tried holding CTRL, when releasing. This is meant to stop it docking when you want it to float near and edge without docking it. I may work for floating on another screen.

    Mine floats on a second screen just fine.  I tested with a project that was already floated and moved to the second display and a project that was not already floating the MD.

    Floats on my second screen; in fact, it remembers that whereas it didn't previously.

    It will only float and persist on the monitor where the track view is placed I believe. At least in Cambridge.

    THis happens to me pretty often, especially with older projects. If you look around you'll see a "ghosted" piece of the dock when it's supposed to be visible. If you click on it and then do "D" to hide the dock and "D" to pop it up again it should come up as advertised. It's weird, but I've gotten used to it.

    I've found the hidden icons to get to the Multidock so the problems solved but man the Multidock is now a glitchy piece of Sonar in this release. It flickers and crashes Sonar.

    Did you try a roll back, and update. May be worth a try being you seem alone in your issues so far.

    Sorry you're having so much trouble Mike.  Glad you at least found a partial solution.  I wonder what's causing you so much trouble with it on your system.  Mine's behaving just fine, no matter how much I load the multi-dock up.  Since it now seems to be more of a display issue for you, have you checked for updates for your graphics card drivers?

    Yeh, all checked. The weird thing is if I go back to Cambridge it's all smooth and works fine. In Dorchester it's a bit glitchy. With the newer features that have come out I've been experimenting with new workflows maybe time to go back to scratch on how I use my second monitor.

    Also working better than ever here.  Scrolling is nice too.
     
    I did notice that if there aren't views open in the dock, the detach glyph isn't visible.  You have to open at least one view for the detach option to show.
