Not Feasible

Applies to:

Dream Maker

Status:

Not Feasible

Implementing this feature is not possible now or in the foreseeable future

Please add the ability to drag Out dm windows out from tabs of Dream maker same how for example Chrome works, you can drag windows and make those windows, windows themselves.

And maybe somehow to still be part of the same Dream maker project and when you compile you compile all windows that are part of the same project.

Ganite	Whats the point? Just wondering.

Ter13	Whats the point? Just wondering. Side-by side file editing without potential resource conflicts caused by having multiple DM instances open. This is how most modern IDEs work.

This is how most modern IDEs work. that, and some of us have big monitors and alot of space even 2+ Monitors, the work help we would get from having this will be really up there. Not having to go back and forth would be a huge boost!

Ter13	that, and some of us have big monitors and alot of space even 2+ Monitors, the work help we would get from having this will be really up there. Not having to go back and forth would be a huge boost! Yeah, I run 1920x1080 across two monitors. It'd be nice, but having tackled this myself before in Qt, I can pretty much say that it's pretty unlikely.

Zasif	I think its possible, its just if lumo feels like its worth doing.

Ter13	I think its possible Oh yeah, it's definitely possible. It's just a massive pain in the ass.

Lummox JR	IMO this is beyond the level of IDE design I feel it's worth it for me to chase. I'd rather see third-party tools develop along these lines.

NNAAAAHH	This whole topic was hashed out when we got the tab feature. Everyone wanted windowed tabs, but it just isn't really feasible. Unless you want to take it upon yourself to do it or donate funds to have it professionally done, that is. I am curious, though, what 'work help' would you achieve from this(exactly)? Outside of the obvious(which Ter already stated).
