- Click "New..." (or press ctrl + n)
Expected Behavior: The new score popup opens in the same window.
Actual Behavior: A completely new window of MuseScore will open, and the new score popup will open

*note: this bug only presents itself after opening a score. If you click "New" without opening a score first, then the New Score popup opens in the same window (as expected).
