Now if the serial monitor is open and you want to open the plotter (or viceversa) you can't do it simply clicking on the desired extension, but you have to close the opened one first. Would be very nice to autoclose the open one.

And upload with plotter open is not possible. You get: board can't be found

Being able to use both monitor and plotter simultaneously would be too complicated to code, right? If not, it would be nice. (I guess you can't just have 2 threads accessing the same serial port; there should be some sort of centralized program that reads the serial port and sends data to both windows for this.)

EDIT: never mind; this was already mentioned in arduino/arduino-serial-plotter-webapp#27

Obviated by addition of support for using Serial Monitor and Serial Plotter simultaneously in Arduino IDE 2.x
