sorry about this simplistic question, but, how can documents be opened into their own separate window panes? Currently I have to drag each tabbed window out into empty space to establish a newly opened document in a separate window….can such a workflow be set as a default open file procedure?

thanks

Yes there’s a new preference under Interface called Open New Documents as Tabs – fortunately you can turn this off.

Pity they always change the defaults on each new version to show off new features. Tabs do have their uses for certain types of work, but they are certainly not a default and probably shouldn’t be set that way.

Hi,

Go to Photoshop> Preferences> Interface… and uncheck "Open Document as Tabs".
