Using the Object Tab Shortcut Menu

Right-click any Object Tab to access the following shortcut menu:

  • Back: Returns to the previously selected object (Backspace).

  • Next: After selecting Back, Next is available to return to the original object (Shift+Backspace).

  • Keep Open: Converts the Object Tab from a Recycle tab to a Keep Open tab (Ctrl+P). The recycling icon is removed from the tab, and the tab no longer updates to reflect selections in the Project Explorer.

  • Duplicate: Opens a second instance of the Object Tab within the same Object Tab Group (Ctrl+D).

  • Detach: Detaches the Object Tab from the Object Tab Group. The tab is then displayed as a new Object Tab Group in a floating window. It can be dragged back into the original Object Tab Group.

    When the last remaining Object Tab is detached from an Object Tab Group, the Object Tab Group is closed unless it is the only Object Tab Group remaining in the Designer layout. In this case, an empty Object Tab Group remains in the layout.

  • Split to the Right: Opens an Object Tab Group to the right of the current Object Tab Group containing only the selected Object Tab. This creates a second instance of the selected tab, including both the Primary and Secondary Editors (when present). This makes it possible to view and edit different tabs within the Object Tab at the same time.

  • Close: Closes the Object Tab.

  • Close Other Tabs: Closes all other Object Tabs in the Object Tab Group.

  • Close Tabs to the Right: Closes all Object Tabs to the right of the Object Tab in the Object Tab Group.
