On flash 3 there are shown *five* posible positions of grouping windows. Anyway
I am able to use one (two if i consider adding as tab from left and right as
different) position - add window as a tab to another

Note: undocked Editor cannot be grouped with anything.

Comment 2 David Simonek 2006-08-07 14:52:30 UTC

Already tracked as enhancement, with agreement of UI spec writer.
