Does Android Studio have the option of opening a referenced file in a new tab (like Xcode's Alt-click feature)?
If not, is there a way of creating this?
Open current editor tab in new window
Shift+F4
Even I couldn't find a way of "Duplicating Tabs". But there are two workarounds that might help:
1) Right click on a tab title and choose either Split Vertically or Split Horizontally. This can be done multiple times!
2) If for some reason you don't want to see the files side by side, there's another hack (works for me on Mac): First, right click on a tab title and choose either Split Vertically or Split Horizontally. Now, drag the extra tab (by its title) on to the title bar of Android Studio => the tab will pop out into a new window!
Hope this helps!

Is it possible to code in two or more columns in ANDROID STUDIO at the same time?
For example: In Sublime Text 3, I can go to View>Layout>columns:2 to be able to see two open files at the same time and edit both of them. This is a Screen Shot of two columns opened in sublime text
Right click on file name at the top of the editor. And select either split vertically/horizontally to duplicate or move right/left
we can do it just by taking a Right-click on the activity to be multitasked from the activity draw displayed just above the Typing console(coding area) and choose the option "Move to Right ":
I use Sublime Text 3 in two column mode. I have several tabs open in each panel/column.
Current behavior:
(Upper part of diagram)
There are seven tabs open in the left panel. The current displayed tab is tab 2. I move tab 7 over to the right panel.
(Lower part of diagram)
Result: The tab moves over to the right panel. It's displayed in the right panel. That's fine, whatever. On the left panel, though, tab 6 is now displayed instead of tab 2.
Desired result: On the left panel, tab 2 should be displayed instead of tab 6. Is there any setting to do this?
There is no setting to do this as at build 3157. Someone wrote a plugin to handle this when closing tabs, maybe it could be adapted to work when moving tabs between groups also.

When I am editing command button and I go to the top left corner to change the name of the command button it allows me to edit the text and change it but when I press enter or click somewhere the name of the button keeps reverting back to the original name.
I've tried also tried making sure design mode is selected as well, and the command button and the sheet do not have any protection on either
I'm sure I'm missing something simple.
I had a very similar problem. Solved! My problem was that I would create an ACTIVEX button, and using the properties, give it a customized name (changing CommandButton1 to something much more descriptive)... then later, upon saving and re-opening the excel, some of these buttons (not all) would revert to CommandButtonX.
The whole problem was THE LENGTH OF THE NAME. My names that failed would be around 39 chars or more (somewhere around 39). Using the selection objects pane under the Excel "Find and Select" menu item, I observed the ones that would fail vs succeed.... comparing what I would change in that pane with control properties (Name) and the excel "sheet Name Box" in the upper left area of the sheet screen.
When we have to rename the command button, you can use properties and namebox. But the purpose to change the appearance of button, you have to go to
properties->caption. In caption, you can rename button's appearance.
I am using Powerpoint storyboard addon by Visual Studio 2012.
I added a tab group vertical and want to change the visible tab.
How do I set the visible tab?
It seems it is not supported. Once the shape is added to the slides, it is just like any other PPT grouped items. Sliders and progress bars got okay with it for smart behavior, but not the tabs.
The only workaround I found is to do so manually. If you want to make the second tab active:
Select and move the active first tab to third one's location.
Select and move the second inactive tab to the first one's location.
Select and move the active tab to second one's location.
Select and move the "white line" below the active tab.
Handling the tabs right now is crazy !!
Often I use a split layout / workspace. Mostly I split vertically.
After a short time I have 10 tabs left, 10 tabs right
If I try to reorder a tab by dragging it, the tabs beneath it (the place I'd like to drop the tab) jump around and flicker.
If I click a tab (of a row) all rows reorder... what the * ? How to keep an overview like this.
I can't drag from one view to the other.
So my associated questions would be...
About 1. Am I doing something wrong ?
About 2. Are there some settings to disable this reordering ?
About 3. See edit
Sublime Text 2 for example does this all very naturally.
Edit
I found out that I can drag a tab from one side to another, BUT I need to drag it a little bit down first so the tab gets "loose"
There is no fix yet, these are known issues:

http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-84887
A workaround would be to use tabs on left/right or in single row options.
