Currently, the piano roll editor (PRE) window "disappears" behind the Musescore application window when clicking back on a score and won't reappear even when the PRE is re-selected from the context-menu. The PRE should remain in view until it is closed. Or, as BSG suggested (see comment below), the PRE should at least reappear when re-selected. Also, please consider adding the PRE to the View menu, ideally as an embeddable window similar to the piano roll; the less floating windows the better.

Being able to keep the editor always in view would make going back-and-forth between the score and the editor easier. Thanks.

Edit: changed the title to "Piano Roll Editor: editor window "disappears"" and the Severity from "suggestion" to "major".

Or what I already suggested, i.e., it re-pops to the top when you call for it from the context menu (any reason it's not on the View menu?). The fact that it goes hidden behind the main window and can't be gotten back (other than by moving the latter) is a BUG, not a suggestion.
