Right...this is the layout I use and like, but I very often open
source files that aren't part of the project I'm working on 'cause I
want to use that code in some way.  If it opens in the main project
window, I have to use the contextual menu or do what I described
earlier.  Otherwise, it disappears if I click on another source.

This is one more step that I'd like to eliminate.

I have this enabled already.

I can't seem to find this...where is it?

thanks for the suggestions
