Tabbed documents with multiple instances

Post by RogerFeeley »

I would like to add my voice to the choir requesting that something be done.

-- I would like to enable tabbed documents plus multiple instances.
-- When I select multiple documents in explorer and open them, I want a single new instance.
-- I would like a 'new window' option on the menu bar.
-- I would like to be able to right click a tab and move that document to a new instance.


THEN...
-- Once I have multiple instances of the viewer open with tabs, I would like to be able to drag and drop a tab from window to window.

-- I would like to be able to create virtual folders of combinations of files. I would like to be able to easily create shortcuts for frequently used groups of files. Perhaps some sort of simple XML or scripting language where I can open the script/XML with the viewer and the file tells it to go open a bunch of other files.

Hi RogerFeeley,

thanks for the input. We certainly do value user feedback like tis - it is what makes PDF-XChange the user friendly application I believe it is. Know then that we are in the throws of developing the next major version of the Viewer and your input here has been heard.

With respect to the tabs in an already open document, I personally like the way Firefox handles it - one can drag tabs between instances of FF in different windows. Are you familiar with their tab/window interface and is tis what you are describing here?
