AFAIK - there are no 'dockable' windows in Calibre's Library Manager, i.e. child windows that can detached or parked at edges and designated dock sites. Quickview has a Dock/Undock button, it always docks under the Book List/Grid/Shelves and it cannot be detached.

One thing I've noticed, is that a fresh install of Calibre Portable for Windows on my 3840x2160 monitor always has a reasonable size (1818x1155) main window and huge (3592x2130) child windows for MDE, Conversion, etc etc. Not sure when it started - probably before Version 9. As DNSB reports, if the child windows are resized the new size will persist… I assume it's yet another Qt glitch.

The Calibre Book editor and Book Viewer components have 'regular' dockable/detachable child windows.
