How to increase the maximum number of opened editors in IntelliJ?

I am building a grails-app with IntelliJ 9.0 and I am a huge fan of the CTR+TAB shortcut that switches between active editors.

However, by default, IntelliJ keeps ONLY 10 active editors opened at the same time. It is clearly not enough for me.

Do you know, if possible, how I can configure my IDE to have more active editors opened at the same time ?

In IntelliJ IDEA, to convert existing tabs to spaces or vice versa, use File → Edit → Convert Indents → To Spaces (or To Tabs). The Reformat code shortcut Ctrl + Alt + L will also do this, while applying other changes.

Settings | Editor | General | Editor Tabs | Tab limit.

Type in tabs in search

You may also want to increase the recent files limit in Settings | Editor | General | Recent files limit if you are using the Recent Files (Cmd+E) feature.

Works for all IntelliJ IDEA platform based IDEs.
