Hi, editor tabs are useful in my opinion. One of important aspects of software usability is consistency and ease of learning. Given that editor tabs exist in almost every single IDE, users are used to them and the usability would get worse if they would not be in NB. Note that every user is different in the way he works with the IDE and it doesn't have to be always logical :-) -Roman Darryl Mocek wrote: >Yes, I forgot about that.
