Jeremy Bohn Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Discussed HERE sort of. I think it shouldn't have to be either/or. You should be able to click and drag a tab away and let it become a separate window like practically every other app works with tabs while the remaining tabs stay in place - Creative Suite, Safari, Finder, any app that uses the built-in macOS tabs does it this way. cubesquareredux 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 If you're on Windows, use Window > Float (to float a specific tab) or Window > Float All to float all of them Patrick Connor and cubesquareredux 1 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dominik Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 5 hours ago, carl123 said: but trying to easily arrange two documents side by side is just as frustrating as Brexit at the moment I just discovered something interesting (on Windows): With two documents open and tabbed do the following: drag one tab to make it floating and then drag it to the left end of the screen. This puts the document window on the left half of the screen and shows on the right half all open windows (this is a Windows standard behaviour). in the right half you click on APub and it resizes to fill the right half of the screen. drag the remaining tab to make it float and then drag it to the right end of the screen. Result: two documents neatly side by side. This also works with four files in the corners of the screen. But it is certainly not as flexible as built in arrange capabilities. I've sworn to myself not to comment on Brexit. So I won't say anything about the second part of your post d. cubesquareredux 1 Quote Affinity Designer 1 & 2 | Affinity Photo 1 & 2 | Affinity Publisher 1 & 2 Affinity Designer 2 for iPad | Affinity Photo 2 for iPad | Affinity Publisher 2 for iPad Windows 11 64-bit - Core i7 - 16GB - Intel HD Graphics 4600 & NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M iPad pro 9.7" + Apple Pencil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl123 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Cant get the above to work at all, not sure if it's because I have 2 screens, Windows 8.1 or just don't understand what you are describing.

I am not sure when the feature 'snap to left half of the screen' was introduced. It may have come with Windows 10 and that could be the cause why it is not working for you (or the two monitors what I cannot verify). Sorry, I'm not at the computer with APub right now (thus now video). d.
