Include file tabs spanning two monitors
PostPosted: Tue Dec 01, 2015 4:20 pm     Reply with quote

So I've got a problem. I have too many include files and I have tabs spanning the space of two monitors. It's getting frustrating having to scroll right and left to get into the include files that I want. Is there anything in the compiler that will put tabs on multiple levels? So instead of having to scroll right to get a new tab, all tabs that exceed the size of the window would automatically be placed below the first level of tabs.

While we are at it, can the tabs remain in the placed position if I place them manually? Each time I move them, they get re-ordered when I start the program again.

I don't know of anything to do with the tabs offhand, but as a workaround, you might be able to use bookmarks to jump around to specific files.

Ctrl+Shift+1 through Ctrl+Shift+9 to set the bookmarks
Ctrl+1 through Ctrl+9 to go to them.

Also, remember you can click on 'files' on the left hand vertical bar at the edge of the screen and get a vertical table, showing all the files (input and output) for the project, and select them from here. Much easier than scrolling across dozens of files...

I got a reply from CCS. They were very helpful. Apparently the tab stacking is already available. This will be awesome. I hope that this will help others looking for answers.

If you go to the Options ribbon and then select the "IDE" button, it will open the IDE options dialog. On the General tab, there is a checkbox on the top right called "File Tabs span multiple rows". Check this option and click "Apply" and then "OK". This will set the editor tabs to span multiple lines instead of scrolling with the arrows. Hopefully this is what you are looking for.
