   #. Right click on the Tab of a resource.

#. To move this resource to a Floating window, click here.\\\\{{$media:Layout4g.jpg}}\\\\\\
#. To move this resource to a Floating window, click *Openinafloatingwindow*.
\\
!!! Opening from a link
 * This is probably very obvious. But you may not have known that you can also open a resource from various links.
 * Although obvious, you can also open a resource from /links/ in other resources, some Guides and Tools like Information, Cited By, Power Lookup, Explorer, Factbook.
 * This example only shows using a link from *Explorer*. But there are similarities found for links in other tools or links within resources.
 * You can click on the link, or use the /Context/ menu:
 * Example below
   #. Right click on the link in Explorer.  \\ \\  {{$@img-fluid amber:11061514:45674618?maxwidth=700}} \\ \\
   #. Right click on the link.
   #. When the pop-up /Context/ menu appears click on *Link*
   #. When the pop-up /Context/ menu appears click on *Link* on the right side (this changes options on the left side of the menu).
   #. In this example we already have the /Bible Knowledge Commentary/ open, so clicking *Open link* would reposition it to where the link was pointing.
   #. If you click /here/, it will open a 2nd copy of the *BKC* in a new tab and position it to the link location. The advantage here is that the original *BKC*'s position is not disturbed and we can view the linked position in the new tab. \\ \\    [[{{$ http://wiki.logos.com/media/Layout4h.jpg?maxwidth=600 }} >> http://wiki.logos.com/media/Layout4h.jpg]] \\ \\ \\
   #. If you click *Open link in a new tab*, it will open a 2nd copy of the *BKC* in a new tab and position it to the link location.
!!! Duplicating an open resource
 
* Hold the *Ctrl* key down and click and drag the resource that you want to duplicate. \\ *Mac_Note*: use the *Cmd* key. \\
\\ \\
!! Moving Tabs
!!! Moving all tabs in a tile
* If you hold the *shift* key down then click on a tab and start dragging the tab, all the tabs in that tile will move and you can drop them in a new location on your layout.
 * Notice in the image below that 3 resources are moving as they are being dragged. These were all the resource in that tile.  \\ \\ {{$ media:Layout10a.png }} \\
 
\\ \\
!! Closing Tabs
