Feature Request: Lock Tab Bar

Postby Everyone » Fri Mar 10, 2006 2:53 am

I've been asking for this feature for years... Please, please add an option to lock the tab bar (i.e. so that it cannot be moved relative to the UltraEdit window).

It happens often enough that I accidentally undock the tab bar to drive me halfway bonkers.

Thanks for reading.

I concur

BTW. I think IDM labelling UE as "The World's Best Text Editor!" is quite deceptive... Should be more like "The World's Best MSWindows Editor!" Compared to Emacs, UE is a simpleton.

Emacs runs on every platform and on Wintel since Win'95.
However, it don't sport a MSWindows-like UI, which is what UE has and flaunts. Anyone who's used Wordpad can start off using UE immediately, that's not the case with Emacs which requires mental re-adjustment.

Now we're on version 12 and still can't lock the tab bar.

Count my vote for this.
I really hate toolbars that cannot be locked in position.

I couldn't agree more. Please, please, please allow me to lock the toolbars. Very few things are more frustrating than being "in the zone" when you're coding than accidentaly dragging your toolbars out of place.

Lock the Open File Tabs bar? No problem anymore - see How to fix (make unmovable) the toolbars? It is even described in help of UltraEdit/UEStudio. Where? Not surprising, on the page titled Open File Tabs command.
