Go to IDE "About" Menu. The third line shows the version of IDE you are using.
Also when you start IDE the splash screen shows the version. The latest released
IDE is v1.0.3a.

Do you mean while Code Editor is in view you add a different window to Design
and lose data in Code Editor or do you mean when switching, say Window1 to
existing window Window2?
Either way I'll make some tests.

OK, I'll check this also.

No. In Code Editor there is a Menu "Options" and when clicked one of the
menuitems is "When Changing Controls." Your selection (or default option,
determines which event to go to when changing controls from the List next to the
editing panel.
