I've seen few people use it like that and Im struggling with figuring: how can i move the navigation of my open files inside NetBeans IDE to be navigating through a tool bar on the side.
In other words, instead of navigating between files horizontally (just like in the browser), i want the tabs to be displayed on my right on NetBeans.
Any chance someone could explain?
Thanks in advance.
You want to put the window tabs to the right side?
At Tools|Options|Misc|Windows set "Tab placement" to "right"

In Netbeans 8 the tab placement options are in Tools -> Options -> Appearance -> Document Tabs -> Tab placement.
Hey am not pretty sure about the Netbeans. If you see in the eclipse there is an short cut ctrl+f6 in order to change the you can directly go to editor settings and then you can change it to what ever you want.
If you come to net beans i saw in one of the post they mentioned ctrl+tab try to look this link it might help you.
Thanks,

All of my files of all my programs were all on the left side of my screen after opening Eclipse. After the 2021-06 update, I cant find them. I know they are there but its not easily accessible like it used to be (left side of screen). Does anyone know how to display all my workspace(packages, programs etc...) Hope this makes sense...thanks guys!
From the top bar:
Window -> Perspective -> Reset Perspective...
How to know where eclipse will open the next sub menu inside popup.
For example in Java Class file, right click and the menu appears, mouse over an item which has sub menu.
Even when there is enough space most of the time it is illusive. Is there a rule of thumb for correctly predicting eclipse behavior
cheers :)
Not sure this is what you want but you might try customizing your Java perspective: Window->Perspective->Customize Perspective...
You'll have to look through the tabs (2 of which I included) to see what can be done.
I am using IntelliJ 2016.3.3 and I want my Run and Messages window to be switchable like tabs. Right now I have them in split mode as shown below:
Can this be changed to tabs in tool window such that whichever tab I click that covers the whole area ? Split mode does not suit me.
Update:
When click on the upper right wheel , these are the options I get:
Okay , I found the solution. All, we had to do was to go to View -> Tool buttons and activate it. See the image below :
and now if you look at bottom and right , we will see tabs for all possible tool windows. Have a look at figure below:
Now, we can simply click and select the tab we want. :)
You can turnoff split mode in tab options:
I'm brushing up my Eclipse RCP skill by trying to enhance my one-year-old side RCP application. This application has one perspective, and this perspective has 3 views, and I'm adding another view into the same perspective. To add this new view, I added it in the MANIFEST.MF file under Extensions tab and created the Java file for it.
When I run it as an Application, it works. I see all 4 views in the application. But, when I run it as a Product, that new view is missing. It almost seems like the new view is not registered in the Product. There's no error in the console log either. I think I must be missing a step here, but I can't seem figure out here... pretty frustrating!
Note: The views are added into the perspective programmatically (in Java code), not through MANIFEST.MF file. I just realized that even when I change the existing view's layout (ex: size, or location), it doesn't get reflected when running as a Product either, but it works when running as an Application... sigh!
Note: I commented out all the code in my perspective class, in another word, all the views are removed from the perspective. When I launch the Product, I'm still seeing 3 views in the application. I'm thinking there's something to do with caching, but I'm just bummed now.
Any helps are greatly appreciated here! Thanks much,
Okay, after aimlessly clicking around, I figured out the solution. The workspace data needs to be cleared to pick up changes from the perspective.
To do so...
Right click the product file
Choose "Run Configurations..."
Under "Main" tab, check "Clear" checkbox and "workspace" radio button.
Run it.
Hope this will save some of you from troubles.
I've been bitten by this a couple of times until I figured out the easiest workaround: it's sufficient to reset the perspective. There are two ways to achieve this:
Right-click on your perspective in the perspective selector bar at the top right and click on Reset.
Switch to your perspective and then go to Window | Reset perspective....
After that, the changes to your perspective should be picked up.
I can split editor panes horizontally or vertically, but it does not seem possible to view code in two separate physical windows. I am aware that Idea can open multiple projects in separate windows, but I'd like to be able to do this for two files in a single project.
One answer suggested unpinning the tab, but I haven't been able to make that work (I'm on Mac OSX if that matters.)
This seems like a basic feature in today's world of multi-headed workstations. Before moving to an IDE I used to do this regularly with good old Emacs. Is there some trick I am not aware of to make this happen?
This is now possible in IDEA X. Hopefully you're still an IDEA user and can take advantage of this :)
Unfortunately there is no way (as of IDEA 8.0.1) to do what you're asking for. As you pointed out, you can split the editor pane but there is always exactly one editor per IDEA project.
UPDATE: As of IDEA 10 (currently the latest is 10.5), the answer is yes, you can :-)
I work around the limitation by opening one source file in vi, on a second head monitor.
Then work main file within Idea (actually Pycharm).
Update: even with the feature built into pycharm, I still use vi. Works better.
As per #9000's comment, an editor tab can be turned into a new window by dragging the tab outside of IDEA.
Yes- with IDEA X, it is finally possible to open multiple editor windows.
