Window handling

Docking and floating

You can float docked windows by clicking and holding the title bar of the window and dragging them from their current dock. For tabbed windows, you can click the tab and drag it from the dock.

To dock a window, click the title bar, drag it to the workspace you want to dock it, and drop it onto one of the dock symbols that appear in the interface. When hovering with the mouse over a dock symbol, the dock position of the window is indicated by a colored area.

The dock locations are:

Dock in the center of the workspace as a tab
Dock on the left side of the workspace
Dock on the right side of the workspace
Dock on the top side of the workspace
Dock on the bottom side of the workspace

Arranging windows

Floating windows can be manually resized and freely arranged on the computer screen. Specific window arrangements and customizations can be easily restored by saving them as a Window layout.

An easy way to create floating windows of the same size is by first adding them as tabs in a floating window and then untabbing them.

Arranging windows on multiple computer displays

It is also possible to distribute floating windows across multiple computer displays with display extension and store the arrangements as window layouts in QTM.

When using multiple displays, all displays must have the same scaling in the Windows display settings.
