Explanation of the fields on the dialog
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Location | Specify whether tabs should be displayed above or below the views to which they relate. |
| Tab mode |
Specify whether to display each view in a separate tab, or each view in a separate, un-tabbed window. If you choose to display views in tabs, you can choose whether to include a tab that displays the project window.
The project window displays a project tree and enables you to browse the project's hierarchy when the project view is not displayed in other views. You may, or may not wish to display it.
Note that if you change the setting in this field, your changes do not take effect until you have closed and restarted Project Viewer. |
