Hi Dave - You're welcome 8 - )
One thing I forgot to mention - In windows with multiple tabs, you can also
rearrange them. Just drag any tab across the other tabs until it is
positioned where you want it.
I actually like the new UI very much - the only improvement I could think of
is that, when I turn off auto-hide from time to time ( because I want the
window to stay open for a while ), and then turn it back on when done
working, that tab ( or group of tabs ) always moves to the end of the line.
It would be nice if hidden windows/groups could somehow remember their
position relative to other hidden windows until they are undocked...
Steve
