Re: Window left open

Hi Buck

I wasn't thinking of dragging an editor outside of RDi - so I tried it just now. That also worked - cool, and thanks - was looking for that the other day, trying to drag the "window", not the tab inside the window, back to the main "window".

My example was to end up with split views in the same "window" - that also works if I drag the tab - everything realigns.

I need to close any tab after dragging to the side (or bottom, I guess).

It works for me. I think.

"dragging back" leaves an "empty window" which,
if minimized, automatically re-positions to the
far right where it appears as a "shared resource".

I think I "get it".

So let's see how well I understand. I'm not that visual, so I
appreciate the latitude... I have 3 tabs in the editor view. I want to
see one of them on the other monitor so I click and hold that tab and
drag it aside. I get a second editor window with one tab in it.

Now, I'm done with that extra editing window and want to get rid of it.
I click the 'X' on the tab, and both the tab and the extra window
disappear. Or, if I click the 'X' on the extra window, the same thing
occurs - both the window and tab go away.

If I want to put that extra tab back where it came from, I click and
hold the tab (not the window!) and drag it to the tab bar (gah,
terminology!) immediately next to an existing editor tab - a green
vertical bar appears where the extra tab will insert. Release the mouse
and the extra window disappears. The tab I dragged aside is again
adjacent to the ones in the 'normal' editor view.
