Hi,

I have a problem in Illustrator 2019 where the document tabs are not showing between the work space and the drop down menus. I have to go into the window drop don menu to change to a different document.

The presentation more is Normal Screen Mode.

Does anyone have any ideas what needs to be done. It recently updated to the latest version from the Cloud.

Thanks for the help and advice.

Neil

    I have sorted it by resetting the work space.

    I don't understand why or how it happened in the first place. I will set up my layout again.

    Thanks for looking.

    Go to Preferences > User Interface and activate Open Documents as Tabs.

    Peter,

    Thanks but that's not it unfortunately. I have 2 documents open and this is what the screen looks like.

    Whenever I open a document, briefly the tabs can be seen then they disappear.

    Thanks,

    Neil
