TAB WINDOWS

A new tab window will open as you access different cases and areas of the Needles program. An identifying icon and window name will display on the tab. The order of the tab windows can be shifted by dragging the tab horizontally to the desired location. Additionally, tab windows can be displayed side-by-side with another tab window or dragged completely out of the Main Needles window to become a floating window.

Side by Side

To drag a tab window to appear side by side with another tab:

  1. Click and drag the tab toward the center of the tab window area until you see the docking control
  2. While continuing to hold the mouse button, mouse over the different panes of the docking control and a blue highlight will show the proposed location for each pane.
  3. Let go of the mouse button while over either of the side panes of the docking control.

   

You can also right click the tab of a tab window, and select the New Vertical Tab Group option from the popup menu.

Top and Bottom

Follow the same steps and select the top or bottom pane in the docking control to display two windows in a top and bottom configuration.

You can also right click the tab of a tab window, and select the New Horizontal Tab Group option from the popup menu.

Center

Selecting the center pane in the docking control will return the window to the center stack of tab windows.

Pin a Tab Window

You can also pin a tab window. Pinning a window will move it to the far left of your open windows. If you have the Needles Today window open, the pinned tab window will appear just to the right of it.

To pin a tab window, right-click the tab of the tab window you wish to pin, and select the Pin This Tab option from the popup menu.
