Description:
Even if a workbench document is closed using the close button, it remains open but invisible.
If you try to open it again or to open another document you have an alert (Opening another model will close the currently open model),
If you confirm the alert, the document still reamin invisible

You can only quit workbench and open it again

How to repeat:
Open a document, close it with upper left red button and try to open it again

Thank you for the feedback. Please provide the screen-shot when you close the original document and would be nice if you provide the project model file ( using the Files tab and private if you wish). Thanks.

Hi
I've attached some screenshot to show the complete sequence of the issue. I've attached a test file too. It is an empty workbench file, but it can be used to replicate the problem

Thank you for the feedback. Please instead to use the upper left button to close the document do that closing the tab MySQL Model. Thanks.

Hi,
I can use the close button inside each tab, but this doesn't close the whole document and doesn't solve the problem

Let me to explain better. I can close the current model file and open another one like I asked you to did. The red button you are using is to close the WorkBench window not the model file. See the explanation for it:

https://support.apple.com/kb/PH25079?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

Quoting:

"Close a window

    Click the red close button in the top-left corner of the window, or press Command-W.

    If an app can have multiple windows open, such as Safari or Mail, closing a window does not close or quit the app. To quit these apps, click the app’s name in the menu bar, then choose Quit [App]. For more information, see Quit apps."

Yes there is a bug to quit WorkBench on Sierra but that is another issue not the one you are reporting: "Cant close workbench documents"
