Phil_rose Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Hi all, in Designer and Photo I am trying to find a way that I can lay documents out in a tiled fashion. In most programs under Window or View one will find ways of tiling open documents whether it be vertically, horizontally or cascading but there doesn't seem to be any such option in the Affinity programs. And I missing something? Thanks for any help anyone can offer. Phil Gregory Chalenko 1 Quote I like turtles!

As you pointed out in that thread, Ian, the Affinity apps don’t actually tile the document windows for you.

Phil_rose Posted January 20, 2018 Author Share Posted January 20, 2018 Bah. So it's not possible? And PC doesn't seem to have the Float thing at all, right? Quote I like turtles!

walt.farrell Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 In the released version of the apps for Windows you can place documents side by side (or anywhere you want) dragging their title tabs. Or, in the latest beta apps for Windows you can use Window->Float or Window->Float All to float all opened documents or individual documents. What you can't have at this time is automatic tiling. The layout of the floating documents is your responsibility.

Cedge Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Phil_Rose Not impossible. I easily managed it in both the current windows version and the new windows beta. The current windows version only required dragging the images that you want to arrange side by side from the file title bar, resizing them and re-positioning them on screen. Not quite as nice as having the auto tiling or cascading, but still perfectly usable. I even had the second image pane holding a total of 4 images that I could toggle among.
