X3e can't dock Console View in Multidock in older projects.

When opening older Sonar 8 or even X1 projects I am consistently unable to open and put Console View in the Multidock. CV opens in it's own window but will not "slip" into the MD. I can't even do it by right-clicking it, there's simply no dialog window when doing so. Is this a known bug? Is there a 3rd option I can try? Thanks!
 
3rd option: Save project in X3e and reopen. Right-clicking is restored but dragging window to MD turning it blue is not.

    Could be your screenset is locked?

    I would have to have had locked it for that to be the case. But since these Sonar 8 projects are being opened for the 1st time in X1, 2 & 3 there are no screensets to lock. It doesn't happen every time but when it does it's aggravating.

    Click the control in the upper-left hand corner of the Console view.

    Thanks scook, I new I was overlooking something. Of course the views are all behaving properly now so I'll keep this for the next time it happens.
     
    btw, nice BIG arrow. Where'd you find it?

    MS Paint
     
    I think the old projects open the views as non-floating windows. It is possible to get the same behavior in X3 by undocking a view, clicking the control pointed to above and selecting "Disable Floating". Note, the floating and docking options will be greyed out if the view is maximized.
