Quote - You change between the Air library and the flash library by ticking the external library option in General Preferences.

The flash library works both docked and undocked. 

In your case, I would try the external library option. This is a separate windows and canot be docked

Actually, for me, using embedded was the right one. I'll leave it for the time being, since it seems to be working fine, but I might try installing air again at a later date to see if the external option works for me. 

Thanks for all the great input!
