Multiple windows next to each other
takeshimiya:
I was thinking that tabs are good for using in linux and windows. But on Mac OS X its a different thing.
Most OS X applications are windows floating, like Gimp, and most users are used to that.
The tabbing interface isn't well suited for big resolutions (ie. more than 1600x1200).
Is there a way to add an option in wx to choose between tabbed interface or floating interface?
takeshimiya:
Too bad, this fact alone is an important reason of why there are *nix programmers that refuse to use an IDE (tabbed interface):

...which I don't understand. What does the picture tell me exactly?!
(Sorry for maybe being stupid.)

:D
Viewing multiple source files at the same time (ie. 8 files), isn't possible in a tabbed interface, but possible in a floating interface, or at least in a 'each file haves a separated window' like the MS Word XP/2003.
That screenshot isn't uncommon between linux programmers with big monitors.
I like the tabbed interface, but sometimes isn't the best option, and other times (ie. Mac OS X) is not an option.

When I need to look at 2, I just drag the .cpp file into notepad. It takes 2 seconds. I have a notepad button programemed on my keyboard, or just hit the winkey + r and type notepad, and there you go. takeshimiya, what is with the funny window titlebar names? :lol: What gui is your os running too?
