Does C::B support multiple overlapping source code windows that I can position wherever I want on my monitors?
I see its standard config uses the now popular tabbed editing method (just like Eclipse), where you can have multiple open source windows (each representetd by a tab), allowing you to easily switch between them. However, with this method, you can generally only see one source window at a time.
I personally find this way of working extremely annoying, and would not be willing to adapt to such an IDE. I bought my two large LCD monitors for a reason. The powerful concept of multiple overlapping windows, which can be arranged in any way I see fit, was invented some 20 years ago. I don't quite feel like going back to that tiled Windows-version-1-style look now :shock:.
If this is currently not a possibility, I think it could make sense to add this capability to a future version. I.e., providing the option of either haing a "docked" desktop, where all windows are tiled (not overlapping), and live within their own little boxes. Or a free-format desktop where each window lives in its own, intependently positionable, window, where multiple overlapping source windows can be visible at the same time. If this is already possible with C::B, perhaps someone can enlighten me.
