DOCKS AND DIALOGS, stacking?
#2
(02-27-2023, 02:51 PM)sedmont Wrote: In docking dialog windows, is there a way to stack dialog windows on top of each other rather than have them turn into columns running the whole length of gimp?  With the "undo" window  or the layers window, having a long column is good, but with other windows I just need a box shaped window, not a long column, and would like to stack the boxes on top of one another. Would also like to be able to lengthen or shorten a dialog window even if it is docked. How does one do that? Can't seem to find documentation on this. 

Thanks in advance for any assistance..

See those 3 dots?
   

Click and drag them up and down when they are horizontal, and sideways when they are vertical.
You can drag and drop a tab to a side, at the top/bottom while dragging them the whole thing will highlight blue, and a slight darker blue appear when you can release your click to be sticked on the side/top/bottom

Now to pile them up on top of each other, yes and no... no in the sense of having just the tab, yes in a sense of having a small window with the tab like at the bottom of my screenshot, and yes you can put more tab with little window between my layer stack and the window below Wink

Tip: Those 3 dots (on the screenshot) can be use as a "line of sight" to drop a tab with your mouse and create one more story/level of window
