Acrobat Pro DC tabs update - I open multiple files...can't use 'Window > Tile' to split view.

Adobe what did you do!!!

Acrobat Pro DC

Update release version 2015.009.200.69

Opened Acrobat this morning and was greeted by a lovely intro showing new features installed in the latest release. Once such update was 'tabs', now grouped together in the top bar. Great, I thought a nice way to have multiple documents open, yet easily accessible. BUT WAIT!!  Part of my workflow is opening multiple documents to combine, edit and swap pages between different PDF files. I do this by displaying two or more files together on the screen at the same time using the menu command: 'Window > Tile > Vertically'. I would then have multiple PDF files in view and by selecting 'Organise pages' I can 'drag-n-drop' pages between each file. With this latest release the 'tabs' don't allow this menu command to work at all!! Adobe you just destroyed my smooth workflow in one go.

Not sure how I can get this back to how it was other than: drag out each file to a new document one at a time until they are separated, then use the menu command 'Tile' and it should now work.

Help. Anyone got any other ideas please?

Adobe you really need to be more careful. Now looking for third party method. Yids.

It sounds as if you just need to turn off tabs in General Preferences.

FOXIT READER

  1. Open Foxit Reader
  2. Choose File tab
  3. Choose Preferences
  4. Click on Documents
  5. Tick first box ... ALLOW MULTIPLE INSTANCES

Now, because you have done this you already have one session of Foxit Reader open.  Go to the tab at the bottom of the page and right click and choose  the Foxit Reader icon again.  This way you can open as many sessions as you like.  Happiness.

Do not fret: the tabs support dragging to another instance, or dragging back, just like web browsers with tabs.

Joshua83702‌ thanks for the info. As mentioned previously this is the only method I can find at the moment. But unfortunately I still have to fret.... try this method over 50 times in one sitting and you'll see why I'm getting a little upset. Feel like I'm being punished by Adobe for something. Why would they prevent one of their menu commands from working?! I'm flummoxed.

Yes, it would have been nice if there was an option to tile from tabs (presumably, split up them all), not just from windows. You can disable tiles in preferences, but then you don't get the benefits.

Do any other tabbed apps do anything sensible on tile?
