Created attachment 218289 [details] mockup It would be nice to be able to tile views within a single stack so that they are all visible instead of stacked on top of one another and a single set of maximize/minimize buttons affects them all. See attached mockup for clarification. This will allow for easier control of maximizing/minimizing certain areas of the screen.
Not 100% sure - do you only talk about. Do you only want to see the same behavior you have in the "editor-area" (which is technically already implemented by MArea at the low-level) or something #378298 introduces where a Tab can hold multiple children (views/editors).
Yes, I would like the same 3.8-style behaviour you get in the editor area (single min/max button for tiled editors). 4.2 also enables a second editor behaviour (separate min/max buttons for tiled editors). Both methods are useful for different reasons. (Sorry, I don't quite know what each part is called, stack/sash etc). Bug 378298 seems a bit tighter integration between views than what I was thinking. I was still imagining the views each with their own tab.
so from a model pov this is a MArea. Just tried to make such an area using the live model editor but I failed to construct something useful.
If we go down the route that the new 'area' must contain more than one stack (i.e. if you drag the other stack out of it then it's no longer an 'area') then we'll need some sort of multi-select gesture to be able to make a new 'area'.
