Docking and Undocking Tool Windows

Tool windows can be used as docked windows, as floating windows, or as a slide-out window. You can freely drag around the windows and dock them at various locations.

  • To undock a tool window, drag the corresponding tab to another position.

    Now the tool window is a floating window which can be freely moved.

  • To dock a tool window, click and hold the caption bar or click the Options button on the right of the caption bar and select Dock Tab Group Elsewhere.

    Yellow symbols indicate locations for docked windows, pink symbols indicate locations for slide-out windows. Drag the window to one of the locations.

  • To dock a floating tool window at its last docked position, click the Options button on the right of the caption bar and select Dock to Last Place Again.
