> but this assumes that the navigator is always displayed (?). It seems so. Currently, the tabs are always displayed :-). The navigator window may be collapsed. Then, if the switch action (Ctrl-Tab) is invoked, the navigator window appears, allows the user to quickly navigate and then it is collapsed back. There could be a rule that if the navigator is not displayed at all, the action for switching between files behaves the same as it does now, i.e. a pop-up window with a list of files is displayed. The editor area then provides a button (or another GUI element) which makes the current "semi-opened" file a regular open file. I guess it would be somewhere near the file name (which must be displayed somewhere, anyway). Marian
