    Tab management question

    After startup I see the home tab. When I then double click on a stored session, the home tab is replaced by the comparison tab. Is there a way to leave the home tab open as well, finishing in having two tabs (home, comparison) after open a session, to be able to open another comparison simultaneously?

    We don't have the option to launch into a new tab from a Home view. The Home view is the default view for any new tab or window. If you need to launch another or new comparison, you can use the New Tab or New Window commands. I would also expect any new instance (tab or window) to load very quickly. Does this meet your needs, or are you running into any trouble loading a new tab/window, or is there another workflow you'd like this to meet?

      Loading a new tab, which actually is a new home screen, and then double click the desired session works quite good. I did never use the new tab command and was irritated because the home tab got "lost", and I was not able to go back to home without closing the current tab... Thank you, problem solved and happy :-)

        Oh, and also, for opening multiple simultaneously, you can select multiple at once (Shift click or Ctrl click), then right-click and Open the selection.

          This, however, does not work. I cannot select multiple items at once (the tree is single selection only; ctrl-click opens the context menu)...

            And thanks for that report. Sorry for the confusion: Ctrl+click is a Windows selection method; on Mac we'd use a different shortcut. We'll look into getting Shift+Click selection working.

              Also, another tip: if you place multiple sessions into a Folder, you can right click that folder and open all sessions within it.

                Aaron, this is exactly what I need :-)

                Thank you
