Split in 5.1.0 absorbs!

Post by jicman »

Hi.

I just upgraded to 5.1.0 and I have two files open and I can not get them to be on the same page. When I do split, the split happens only on one file and the same file appears on both. I am going to have to go back to the older one that had split horizotal or vertical and used all the files that I have opened. Is this possible in the new version?

thanks,

josé

Hi josé,

I had the same problem with 5.1.

The fix is to go to the View menu item and uncheck the Document Tabs menu item.

Hope this helps,

Michael

Wow, this is really a pain in the neck. How come you can't minimize some of the windows? I have six documents open and would like to minimize 4 of them and tile the other two vertically like I could in version 4.x. It would be nice if the "Document Tabs" had a "new vertical tab group" like other editors do.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I like v4.X better. It was just the editor friend. Now, it is hard to handle screens.

anyway...
