NetBeans IDE 3.6 - Source editor in a seperate window

Thread view:

Lukas - 14 Apr 2004 15:23 GMT

My computer is set up with dual monitors and I've grown used to
undocking the source editor in NetBeans IDE 3.5.1 and maximizing it on
my secondary monitor, while having everything else (the form editor,
filesystems tab, properites, etc) on the primary monitor.

I installed NetBeans IDE 3.6 today, and it looks like it has a lot of
nifty features... But I can't seem to find a way to undock the source
editor like I could in 3.5.1, and I despise the MDI mode... Anyone
know if it's possible to undock views in 3.6 like you could in 3.5.1?

From the menu, click:

Tools -> Setup Wizard

Then in the wizard, select the "Separate Windows Mode" radio button.
