Drag tabs to opposite pane?

Post by TsunamiZ »

How about make it possible to drag tabs to opposite pane?  Would be quicker than using the right click menu.

Seconded.

I find myself trying to do it all the time. I can never remember the hotkey to do it so I always end up doing CTRL+I, losing the tab on the other side and manually closing the tab on this side...

agree ... it's odd that a tab can be dragged left/right, but not to the other pane.

Just out of interest, this was mooted originally as part of 1.8 (when dragging in-pane was added), but as of October 8th Nikos' last word on the subject was rather vague:

Unfortunately when he offers a placating workaround (as well as the right-click solution), that usually means it slips further down the priority ladder.
