Moving Open Project Tabs

Post by Greenlaw »

Quick question: Can the order of the tabs for open project files be dragged and re-ordered?

For example, if I have tabs reading from left to right: 's001, bg005, s003, bg004, s002', is there a way to drag them to read 's001, s002, s003, bg004, bg005'?

At the moment, I have a lot of tabs open and it would be helpful if I could re-order them in a more logical order than the order in which they were opened.

Thanks in advance for any info.

I don't think it's possible, but it would be a good feature to have . You should request it in the Feature Requests topic.
(unless I"m wrong and it is possible ? I hope someone will tell us how , if it is possible)

It is indeed not possible to do that.

This is already in the to-do list, as we've discussed this a few years ago: viewtopic.php?f=21&t=9901
I'm afraid that what Elodie said at the time is still true, and it won't be possible in v11.

Thanks for responding guys.

Yes, this will be a useful enhancement, and I'm glad to hear the team has been looking into it. Will look for it in a future release then. Good luck!
