Multiple windows next to each other

MortenMacFly:
Now I got the point.

I like the drag-and-drop idea of Vampyre_Dark. Hence - how do you do drag-and-drop? It seems not possible in my version of Code::Blocks...?!

However - I "found out" another quite simple way to open another window: The tools menu. I've just added notepad and wordpad (for *nix files) to it and used ${ACTIVE_EDITOR_FILENAME} as parameter. This way I don't even need drag-and-drop.

And another nice feature came into my mind: To extend the right-mouse-click menu on a file with an "open with..." command. There the entries from the tools menu should apear and something like "choose..." which opens a file explorer and lets you select a tool to open this specific file with. I am going to post this on SourceForge, maybe you like the idea as well.

With regards,

Morten.

I said I drag and drop into notepad!

If you want to frag a file into C::B you need to drag it into the code window ouptut at the bottom (messages I think it's called).


edit - frag a file? :lol:

Yes, I understood. But from where within Code::Blocks do you drag? It doesn't work for me at least from the project explorer and/or the opened file tabs...?!  :(

Oops. I meant I drag the icon of the file itself from my code folder. Sorry. :lol:

Ah, those, :D it's a screenshot of the desktop of a developer of enlightment DR17, the best window manager and desktop shell for linux (IMHO).
It's the future of window managers, only rivaled by Mac OS X.

If anyone wants to try it, there is a distro that haves an excellent selection of software and everything configured to use DR17. Its called e-live cd.

Everyone that have tried e-live has been surprised, it's amazing, I have no doubts it's the future!
