<title>Move tabs</title>
<p>
By default, documents are opened in new tabs inside the same
<app>gedit</app> window.
</p>
<section>
<title>Move a tab</title>
<p>
There are several means to move a tab to another location, to organize the
files you edit in the way you like.
</p>
<p>
You can right-click on a tab title and choose the desired option.
</p>
<p>
Keyboard shortcuts are available too.
</p>
<section id="drag-and-drop-tabs">
<title>Drag and drop tabs</title>
<p>
Another means is to drag and drop a tab:
</p>
<steps>
<item>
<p>Click and hold the mouse button on the tab title.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Move the tab to the desired location.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Release the mouse button.</p>
</item>
</steps>
</section>
</section>
<section>
<title>Drag and drop locations</title>
<section>
<title>To re-order tabs within the same window</title>
<p>
Drag and drop the tab along the tabs titles.
</p>
</section>
<section>
<title>To create a new window from an existing tab</title>
<p>
Drag and drop the tab out of the <app>gedit</app> window.
</p>
<p>
When <app>gedit</app> is maximized, drag the tab onto the top bar of
<gui>GNOME Shell</gui> at the top of the screen.
</p>
</section>
<section>
<title>To move a tab from one gedit window to another</title>
<p>
Drag and drop the tab to the other window, either within the text area,
or within the tabs titles to choose the exact location.
</p>
<!--
This is currently not super convenient to use: once in the Activities
overview, we don't have much time for choosing the right window. We
often end up on a wrong window to drop the tab.
So it's not a great tip to explain.
-->
<!--
<note style="tip">
<p>
You may find it easier to move a tab from one window to another by
dragging the tab to the <gui>Activities</gui> hot-corner of
<gui>GNOME Shell</gui>. This will reveal each of the open
<app>gedit</app> windows. You can then release the tab on the desired
<app>gedit</app> window.
