If you already have an open Map Window and your preference is to re-use the open Map Window (which is the default), a new marker set will be added to any existing marker sets that may already be showing in the open Map Window.  You can easily switch between marker sets, or hide/show all markers, or delete or re-arrange them, using the buttons, options and dropdown 'Marker Set' list, in the top-left of the Map Window.  However, if you prefer to open a new Map Window each time, set the 'Re-use of Open Windows Permitted' setting to 'No' for the Map Window in the Workspaces tab of Preferences (accessible from the Tools menu).
