I initially designed those buttons to be familiar for users coming over from Windows, but I agree, I'll be redesigning it and moving buttons to the toolbar to make it fit in more with the macOS design language (and potentially give configuration options in the Settings).

The toggle is actually a native SwiftUI Picker in the toolbar. Adding command options and dragging and dropping on the dock icon is on the roadmap!

Yeah I know its a standard control I mean more the idea of using that control to toggle opening or new document behavior isn't what it was designed for.

I'd suggest leaning more into MacOS as they're on MacOS so they wanna use things that feel like MacOS right? The default MacOS toolbar controls work and look really nice.
