Can you set always open a new tab?

Answered

When I ctrl-click it reuses the tab. I actually never want my IDE to reuse a tab. In all cases imaginable I want it to open a new tab. I have not been able to find this setting. Is it possible?

I still don't understand, Is there an opportunity to open a new tab when I click Ctrl-LMB on the method name (python)? I want to just take a quick look at the source function or method (in the current file) and continue writing code. But IDE is taking me to a new place, and I should search for my current work again and again. It makes me crazy.

Settings > Advanced Settings > Editor Tabs
Unselect the option When navigating to a file, prefer selecting existing tab in inactive split pane and save.

This resolved the problem for me.

Not worked for me, may be I describe my problem not very exactly. There is a gif. I want to open new tab when I ctrl-click on object name.

Hello, Mr Swasher. Could you please check if the Open declaration source in the same tab option is enabled in Settings | Advanced Settings? If so, please try to disable it.

Olga Mulina Thank you for responce. Now I have following settings:

Are you sure, when you Ctrl-Click on instance name, appropriate Class (which in same file) will open in a new window?

Tnx you.

Hi Mr Swasher ,

There is no way open the same file in a new tab, unless you split the window: Window | Editor Tabs > Split [Right, Down] (or via RMB on the tab):

 

now I want to return to edit previous code, but how to find it???

Would Navigate | Back be of any use here?
