Hi

How do I turn off the global option when making new windows in perspective ?

You have the docked views applied in the `Shared Settings` tab. Go to the shared settings, remove the docked views, then apply them back on the pages you want them to be visible.

Depending on your requirements, I would not advise this because you would then need to re-apply the currently shared settings to ALL pages which _should_ use these Docked Views.

First, determine if those Docked Views _should_ be shared across all pages of the project _in general_. If the expectation is that they should be present on almost every page, leave them within shared settings.

To disable them for _individual_ pages:

1. Select the page you wish to exclude the Docked View from with the Page Configuration panel.
2. Add a new Docked View on the side which has the Docked View config you'd like to NOT use for this Page.
3. Select the SAME View path for this new Docked View config as the Docked View you want to remove is using.
4. Under the `Display` setting, select `onDemand`.
5. Under the `Handle` setting, select `hide`.

This will result in the page displaying to the user with the Docked View you do not want displayed not visible. This is because behind-the-scenes the Docked View registry uses the View path as the "id" of the Docked View, and always uses the most recently applied settings for the id in question.

I did not know this was possible or how the dock configuration worked - thank you for this information! It would be helpful if this example was in the documentation as it's a pretty common scenario that I've run into myself and I always fixed it how @dkhayes117 suggested.
