  <title>Move and re-order tabs</title>
  <p>Tabs in <app>gedit</app> can be moved, making it easier to work with your files. Tabs can be can re-ordered within the same window, moved outside of <app>gedit</app> (creating a new <app>gedit</app> window), and moved from one window to another.</p>

    <title>Change the order of tabs in the gedit window</title>

    <p>To change the ordering of tabs in a window:</p>

    <list type="numbered">
      <item><p>Click and hold the mouse button on the tab</p></item>
      <item><p>Move the tab to the desired position among the other tabs</p></item>
      <item><p>Release the mouse button</p></item>
    </list>

    <p>The tab will be placed in the position closest to where you release the tab, immediately beside other opened tabs.</p>

    <p>To drag a tab into a new window:</p>

    <list type="numbered">
      <item><p>Click and hold the mouse button on the tab</p></item>
      <item><p>Drag the tab out of the space it occupies</p></item>
      <item><p>Release the mouse button</p></item>
    </list>

    <p>or, while the tab to be moved is open, choose <guiseq><gui>Documents</gui><gui>Move to New Window</gui></guiseq></p>

    <note style="tip">
      <p>It's difficult to drag a tab into a new window when either the old or new window is maximized. For best results, un-maximize the windows before dragging the 
      tab.</p>
