When I select 2 domument to be tiled (horizontally or vertically), ALL documents are tiled, instead of ONLY the selected documents.
I believe that this a regression form 4.7.3.

Clarification
I am using the following steps to create the above situation:
1. Open several files.
2. Highlight 2 files.
3. Window -> Tile Horizontally
At this point, ALL files are tiled, instead of ONLY the selected files.
This is the original error that I was trying to report.
Several posters have shown me that the solution described below behaves as expected.
I do agree, however, that if I repeat steps 1 and 2, and Right Mouse click and select Tile Horizontally, it works as expected.
I was pointing out the above situation as an INCONSISTENCY for a specified Feature within the product.

At least you can tile!
At least you can tile files ...
Window, context and button menu options remain greyed out in my installation of 5.0.3 whatever is selected ...
This is such a basic functional requirement that I'll be forced to retrograde to 4.7.3 ... 5.0.x is useless without.

Re: At least you can tile!
Well, probably you can tile too. It turns out that tiling works so long as you don't have document tabs enabled. You can have one or the other. A pretty bad usability hit, I think.pinkink wrote:At least you can tile files ...

That's definitely a retrograde.
Re: At least you can tile!
You can disable the document tabs? I've been trying - I can't find that anywhere.lgpiper wrote:Well, probably you can tile too.

Hate the tabs. I just want a working document selector.
[EDIT] Sorry, I just figured it out. For the record, View > Document Tabs.
