I have recently installed a few tools in Visual Studio, such as Resharper and Power tools.
And now my Visual Studio seems to be "smarter" than before. Whenever I switch to another tab, this active tab will be set as the first tab.
How can I disable this behaviour?
Highlight the block of code and press "Tab" key or press space 4 times. If you want to move it to the left, then hold down the Shift key and press "Tab" key.
First, click and hold the title bar with the mouse, and then drag the window to where you want to dock it. Visual Studio displays some docking icons. Four icons are at the edge of the IDE, one each at the left, top, right, and bottom. These icons are used for docking the window at the given edge of the IDE.
Side by side editing# If you already have one editor open, there are multiple ways of opening another editor to the side of the existing one: Alt click on a file in the Explorer. Ctrl+\ to split the active editor into two. Open to the Side (Ctrl+Enter) from the Explorer context menu on a file.
The active tab behavior also changed for me randomly after restarting VS. This is how I fixed it (with Productivity Power Tools extension installed) :
Tools -> Options -> Productivity Power tools -> Custom document well -> Sorting -> Uncheck Most recently used
