Having multiple projects in tabs like Eclipse? [IntelliJ]

So I just moved from Eclipse to IntelliJ after doing some research. The only thing that I miss is that in Eclipse I can have multiple projects in different tabs and compare projects easily. But in IntelliJ I have to open a project in a new window. Isn't it possible to have all the projects in the tool window like eclipse?

Can you have multiple projects open in IntelliJ?

Open preference -> appearance & behaviour -> System settings -> select (open project in new window) then apply. Then you could open and edit multiple projects.

No, it's not possible. Please vote for this feature request. Note that you can add your multiple projects as modules to Intellij Idea project to be able to view them in a single frame. BTW, there is a document intended to help users migrating from Eclipse to Idea - see this FAQ - you may find it helpful
