Contacts open in separate window

[jer...@miner.tv]

up until a few years ago if I opened a contact via QS it would open in the main 3-pane window of the Contacts app.  After an update (not sure if it was a change in MacOS or QS) the contacts now open in a separate window, which is not my preferred behavior.  Is there a way to change this setting so that contacts just open within the main window of the Contacts app?

Looking at the code, all the plug-in does is tell macOS to open a URL like addressbook://<Contact ID>, so what happens (or used to happen) is entirely up to the system.

According to the docs, there doesn’t seem to be a way to specify anything about window behavior.

For what it’s worth, if you don’t have the Contacts app already running, you’ll get the normal full view when you open a contact. I never knew about the second window because I never leave it running.

Thanks. This is very helpful. I’ll probably just start closing the Contacts app as a matter of routine going forward. Much appreciated!
