Tab Options

Tools >  Options >  Tabs

When working with multiple sessions simultaneously, Beyond Compare can open them in independent windows, or under tabs in a single window.  These options control that behavior.

To control new sessions:

Select either A new window or A new tab for newly created sessions.

To control child sessions:

Select either A new window or A new tab for newly created File Compare sessions that are opened directly from a Folder Compare session.

To control miscellaneous tab behavior:

Set these options to reflect your preferences.

If you uncheck both Closing last remaining tab closes the window and Hide tab bar if single tab then closing the last tab will return to the Open Session page.
