Hello @sashapont
Unfortunately, there’s no way to achieve this scenario on MacOS at the moment. We know about it and we are working on it already.
Sorry for inconvenience.

For now, I recommend taking the opportunity to open a copy of the runing program in macos, using automator and "open -n " option.

Hello @Axx
Thank you for your idea, but we didn’t test this scenario and we can’t provide guarantees of stable work for "open -n " option.

I confirm that this is still an issue on mac. If someone need to a quick way to open a new ONLYOFFICE window (for looking at two documents side by side) I suggest the following:

  • Open mac’s Terminal app.
  • Type open -n /Applications/ONLYOFFICE.app
  • Press ENTER

Note, what I wrote as “/Applications/” is the path to my application folder where I have installed/placed my ONLYOFFICE app. On your computer it might differ and you could have to type something like open -n /Users/your-user-name/Applications/ONLYOFFICE.app.
