Title: View Identifier Tab Zoom/Pan
Post by: Warhen on 2020 February 21 08:58:21

Juan baby! So, we know how incredibly useful it is to be able to drag one tab to another to match zoom/pan positions. But it's a bit annoying when the target view's tab is hidden underneath the reference view. You typically have to drag the target view off-screen to reveal its tab on which to drop the reference tab. What if a keyboard shortcut, with Left-Click/Hold, such as Ctrl or Alt allowed the hidden tab below to be revealed, or permitted the match-up in some alternate way, . Thanks!

Hi Warren! Nice to see you here ;)

This is already implemented. Press Shift and hold it while you drag. Then move the cursor over a partially hidden window and it will be brought to the top of the workspace.

Another trick: You can Ctrl-click on a view tab and the window won't be activated. This is useful when you want to copy a view's position and zoom factor without changing the active window.
