Document tabs

Android/iOS: This function is not available for smartphones. For tablets, actions are possible with the tabs within the same program window.

A bar with document tabs can be seen above the document. It displays one tab for each open document.

The document tabs bar

The tabs can be used to perform the following actions:

To make a document become the active document, left-click its tab. This enables you to rapidly switch between the open documents.

To close a document, click on its tab with the middle mouse button.

Alternatively, left-click on the x icon displayed on the far right of each tab.

You can change the order of the tabs by dragging a tab to the desired position on the tab bar while holding down the left mouse button.

To release a tab and display it in a separate program window, drag it to a position outside the current program window while holding down the left mouse button.

Of course, this can also be done in reverse: A program window that has been opened separately can be dragged into the tab bar of an existing TextMaker program window.

By the way, documents can also be started in a new program window when they are opened. For more information on working with multiple documents, see Working with multiple documents.
