Navigate to element feature from ETS5
In ETS5, when you opened the group address panel using “navigate to element”, every time you did “navigate to element” on a new group address, it opened it in the existing group address panel. When you do it in ETS6 it opens a new panel every time, meaning you have to close the original for each new group address. This is very annoying in bigger projects when you’re looking at many group addresses in different main and middle groups.
This is a feature I and many colleagues use every time we're working on a project. It has caused us to hesitate on upgrading to ETS6 on multiple projects despite many of the new helpful features.

Very important: The new navigation options Open->New Panel, Open->New Tab, Open->New Window do not solve this issue!
What I would like to get is an Open->Existing Panel AND the option, to choose this as default (per Object type, so for group addresses differently als for devices) for the normal Click action.
In general, there are 2 navigation metaphors: Object to Object, where you navigate from one object to an other, back and forth. And Object to Detail, where you click on an object and look into its details.
ETS 5 implemented a good Object to Detail navigation for grout adresses and was missing a good Object to Object navigation.
In ETS 6, you removed any Object to Detail navigation and replaced it by a generic Object to Object navigation, globally for all objects. The point is, Object to Object cannot replace Object to Detail, it depends on the Task I have to do, which metaphor fits best.
So please bring back Object to Detail, at least for group adresses, back to ETS 6.
