Re: v6

There are some settings which (I think) affect every pane and every tab in the file pane. Sometimes I would prefer that I could have a different setting for different tabs, and that the tab would remember its setting. TOOLS > ADVANCED OPTIONS, search for "Each folder tab can have different vie...

Re: v6
