Description Markus Keller CLA 2005-05-10 10:51:10 EDT 
The current editor can be opened again via the New Editor action in the tab
context menu.

It should also be possible to duplicate an open editor via drag and drop, by
holding the 'copy' modifier (Ctrl on Windows) while dropping a dragged editor
tab. The arrow / folders icon should get a "+" overlay when the Ctrl modifier is
held.

Hey, that'd be cool.
Comment 2 Stefan Xenos CLA 2005-05-10 11:22:08 EDT 
No way to detect ctrl-drag inside a tracker event loop with the current SWT.
Comment 3 Eric Moffatt CLA 2007-06-21 12:29:30 EDT 
This is too much churn given that we have the menu item...
