[FIXED] Spyder: Is it possible to have two rows of file tabs?

Issue

I'm using spyder with two panels (in column format), and currently, I'm working with a bunch of scripts simultaneously. Unfortunately, the file tabs in the tab bar are squeezed together and I cannot see their names properly. It makes it hard to switch back and forth between scripts effectively. Having the file tabs in two rows would solve this issue, but I couldn't locate where to set this up. Makes me wonder if it's possible in the first place. Does anyone know if it's possible and if yes, where I can find it?

I know about cmd+P/ctrl+P which brings up a list of open files, but this is a lot slower. It would be nice if I could see what the tabs actually say so I can just switch with a single click.

Solution

(Spyder maintainer here) No, it's not possible to have two or more rows of tabs in the editor and it's not something we plan to add in the future, sorry.
