Long-time Linux user on a Windows 7 machine, using Notepad++ to edit multiple text files.
Sometimes I can drag a tab out of the notepad++ window onto the desktop to get a new notepad++ window. This is a very nice feature. But sometimes when I try to drag a tab out, nothing happens. I don't see what is different about these tabs or the files they contain. It is repeatable; the same tab still won't make a new window.
I'm not familiar enough with Windows and its strange ways to begin to guess what is going on, unless it's a bug. How can I make all tabs draggable-to-new-windowable, no exceptions?
If you right click the tab and select Move to New Instance do you see the same behavior? – uSlackr – 2012-04-12T23:05:41.753
