This is only a maintenance release: bug fixes and compatibility with later operating systems.

The 2022.4 version coming soon has some great new features. 

In MC 2021.12.1, Workspaces has been drastically downgraded.

Witaj Filip,

Avid doesn't keep my own workspaces.

Hi,

Color Correction Mode icon completely disorganizes workspaces. It takes half an hour to fix the situation.

Darn that does look annoying. 

Does the issue persist when you dock your panels instead of float them? Did this issue occur in a previous version of Avid?

I'm afraid that after a long time of fighting workspaces, I realized where the mistake was.
In the fact that I was guided by logic.
Optimistically, I assumed that since I can define my own workspace, eg CC, it can include selected windows, eg only 3 - obligatory CC, sources and timeline. I after save everything is OK.
Then I create another New Workspace for Edit in which I have more windows, e.g. a few bins, source, timeline and I save it.
If after that I change my own workspaces between Edit and CC, the windows shift or the windows with Edit Workspace appear in it.
The only method is for CC workspace to have the same windows as Edit, plus CC.
I did not understand it, the logic was beyond me.
That's just how MC works.

It is completely tragic to use Color Correction Mode icon. Everything is completely "drifting" for me, I waste time to redefine workspaces.

Finally, an important note. This is not a matter of the latest version as it worked for me because under no circumstances have I touched my workspaces for a long time.
