Managing multiple windows.

Answered

Hey,

I've recently decided to check out Rider as an alternative to visual studio and so far I'm liking it, however there's one annoyance I can't seem to find a fix for.

My work setup uses multiple monitors, and I can split out tabs to span multiple windows with no problem, although I was wondering if there's a way to get Rider to treat those additional windows as belonging to same program? I'd like to be able to have all open windows regain focus and displayed whenever I click back or alt+tab back into the ide. Visual studio had an option to switch between this, I've done some searching but couldnt find anything similar.

Any help would be apprciated.

 

Thanks.
