multiple edit windows
« on: February 17, 2011, 05:38:02 pm »
hi,

I have 2 monitors on my computer and would like to have atleast 2 editor windows, how could i achieve this ?

I have looked on the forum and the wiki, but i cant find any where how to actually activate a second edit window. Its only mentioned that it should be possible.

Using:
-Windows 7
-Code::Blocks, version: 10.05, build 27 may 2010.


Any help / comments are welcome.

Regards
PyroMathic

You can't, I think....
There is no way to tear of an editor window.
Also wxAUI doesn't support transferring a tab from on notebook to another (no 100% sure, too).
So it will be hard to implement...
(most of the time I ignore long posts)

Maybe, just a hint here, but with Notepad++ this is possible... Not sure though what exactly they use, but scintilla for sure and I always assumed (probably wrong) wx* too...

Just drag an editor tab inside the editor window until you see the blueish mark, that indicates where it will be placed and drop it there.
