If you have two files open, split between two panes, then open a third by dragging from Package Explorer or Navigator onto the second pane - the file is opened in the first pane. Follow this: Open two files from Package Explorer. Drag the one of the file editor tabs down so that it ends up in a new pane in the bottom half of the editor (like a horizontal split). Drag a third file from Package Explorer onto the lower pane and let go. The file is placed in a tab on the top pane. Not what I want.
Hrm. I can't reproduce this exactly. I'm finding that the editor is stacked in the same folder as the currently active editor.
I'm not sure what determines which pane the third file is openned in but it is not necessarily the top one, as per my example. If it does open in the bottom pane, then it will not open in the top pane if you drag it from the package explorer.
Kim, you're right. I see now. Surely I should not have to make the pane 'active' ready to drag a new file into though.
You're right that this could be improved. Right now the entire editor area is one big drop target, but it would make sense to open editors in the stack they were dragged over.
