Normally I cover this in a general setup or 'how-http:// to-fix' demo but this video is just about moving those tabs.

Thank you for this helpful video that makes things crystal clear. Just one problem here. In the right column, you have two tab areas with three dots at the top of the lower one. I had that setup until earlier today when I found it convenient to disable single-window mode. Everything was messed up when I turned it back on. I've tried everything under the sun to get my layers/paths/channels tabs in that lower area, but am unable to reattach it. I can move tabs six ways to Sunday but not get a second group attached in that column so I can move the entire GIMP window all at once.
I tried using the white border option, but I do not get a white border, just white line. I checked the online GIMP manual, 2.3.1, where it specifies three default docks, one on the left under the toolbox, Channels, etc. on the top right, and Brushes, etc. on the bottom right. I even tried resetting to default.
SO, any ideas on how to get that two-doc on the right configuration back? If I can get the two areas reclaimed, I can arrange tabs to suit me.
