Should the preferences window be excluded from the "Window" menu? #54

sindresorhus posted onGitHub

I noticed that in some apps, the preferences window doesn't show up in the Window menu. But there's of course no consistency on this.

Shows in Window menu

  • Xcode
  • Calendar (but in a different list than the main window, which is just weird)
  • Reminders
  • Safari
  • App Store
  • Mail
  • Contacts
  • Photos (but with a separator between it and the main window)
  • Keychain Access
  • Script Editor
  • Dictionary
  • Pixelmator
  • Fantastical
  • BusyCal (but with a separator between it and the main window)
  • Transmit
  • 1Password

Does not

  • Notes
  • Messages
  • Final Cut X
  • Music
  • TV
  • TextEdit
  • Grapher
  • Terminal
  • Preview
  • Sketch

Based on my findings, I'm leaning towards keeping it in the Window menu. But I'm looking for more opinions.
