Issues with Detached Mixer and Percussion Panel in MuseScore

Issue type

UI bug (incorrect info or interface appearance)

Description with steps to reproduce

I am using the beta version 4.7.3 of MuseScore and I have noticed some issues with the detached Mixer and Percussion Panel windows when using a second monitor.

I move both the Mixer and the Percussion Panel to my second monitor. When I do this, two problems occur:

When I close MuseScore, the detached Mixer and Percussion Panel windows remain active/open if they were being used.
Every time I reopen the software, I have to manually set the Mixer window's width and height again because its size and position are not remembered.

Additionally, is it possible to improve the detached-window functionality so that the Mixer and Percussion Panel can be fully optimized for use on a second monitor? For example, it would be very useful if MuseScore could remember their size, position, and monitor assignment between sessions.

I would also like to suggest adding a maximize/resize button to detached windows, making it easier to quickly adapt them to different screen sizes and multi-monitor setups.

MuseScore is becoming a real standard for many musicians, composers, arrangers, and educators, so improvements to multi-monitor workflows could greatly enhance the user experience for professional and advanced users.

Are these known bugs? Is there a way to fix these issues, or are there plans to address them in a future update?

Thank you.
