Maximize status has nothing to do with that. It is because you are using TWO
instances and use same layout for both.
If you run TWO instances simultaneously and SAME layout file, you will obviously
overwrite the settings for each other.
Don't do this.
You can only run two instances if they DO NOT use same layout at the same time.
If you want to use two instances you must use only LOCAL layouts
and have two SEPARATE databases.
Each database can be used only with one instance at a time.
Also why running two instances at all when you can have multiple chart windows ?
