PSE 11

[sladd79054]

So, I downloaded the PSE 11 trial and I already find it very annoying. Why when you open a new file do you get tabs instead of separate windows like you do in pse7? How do you get an ellie over to the LO you are working on if you only have tabs? I hope this makes sense. Grrrrrrr

There should be an option to not do it. I'm not 100% sure. I have tabs in ten and I like them (I'm used to them with CS5)

[sladd79054]

so how do you move the item you want over to the LO you are working on if you have tabs?

[Sarah]

I just drag it over, like I would if it wasn't tabbed, but I drag up towards the tab I want to put it on.
I know, clear as mud.

ok I am going to uninstall it because it is really making me mad, I like my old pse 7 lol

[Sarah]

"Allow Floating Documents in Full Edit Mode" is the section you need checked, I believe. It's in Edit-Preferences.
I have it unchecked and have tabs

Just opened PS10, and I haven't opened it in months

[sladd79054]

I think I may of figured it out, I will try a LO and see how long it takes me lo, thanks for your help.

[Sarah]

Yeah, you have to give it a bit of a chance. You do get used to it, I swear! I've been using tabs since PSE9

Sorry to drop in, a REAL not connected question.

Is it possible to do that on CS5? Not to have tabs, just windows?
I have tried to use PSE 11 but I don't understand the program itself........

*opens up CS5*

There's an option, yes. It's in the same area: Edit-Preferences (or similar wording)

Interface section... Open Document in Tabs should be "unchecked"
