New Designer.Application uses active designer application(s)

Hello, I have found weird Business Objects behaviour.If you call a new designer process while you already have the designer application open, the code will hijack the designer application / active session instead of starting a new designer.exe… You can see this in the taskmanager.
Launch a new designer process >
Dim DesignerApp As New Designer.Application

If you call a new Deski process from your script a new busobj.exe is started, so this works perfect, it leaves already running deski apps alone and starts a new busobj.exe.
Launch a new deski process >
Dim DeskiApp As New busobj.Application

I have tried this on 4 different machines with bo xi r31 sp1 to bo xi r31 sp2.

Does somebody have a clue why this is happening?

According to SAP experts it’s default behaviour… As designer SDK is used for background processing, deski SDK is used for running vb in active reports…
