You can open multiple appliance editors at the same time. The editors are stacked in a tabbed panel.
Tabbed editor windows allow you to work on more than one appliance or switch to editors from add-
on features.
Editors can be stacked on top of other editors or positioned left to right. When multiple appliance
editors are open, you can drag one editor next to another for a side-by-side or top-to-bottom
comparison.
Click and drag a view or editor tab to move it. Or, right-click a view or editor tab to move, size,
maximize or minimize the view or editor. You can also maximize views and editors by double-
clicking their tabs. Double-clicking a tab again restores the previous layout.
File menu options allow you to save, save all, close, or close all open editors.
