More than four panels Sublime Text?

does any know any packages for Sublime Text that will allow more than 4 panels at once? You can change between different layouts "Grid: 4" or "Columns: 4" but I'm looking for something along the lines of an 8 panel grid or possibly another combination with 6-8 panels at once.

Check out the Origami plugin, available through Package Control or on [GitHub}(https://github.com/SublimeText/Origami). It basically allows you to split your window however you want - you can create new panes, delete panes, move and clone views from pane to pane - you don't need to manually edit .sublime-keymap files. Somebody mentioned it a month or two back, and I really like it. If you look at my answer to that question, it details how to save an Origami layout with a custom key binding.

EDIT: I just noticed somebody beat me to the recommendation in the comments. It's still a good answer, though...

For more details on creating a new menu item, see Custom layouts, Sublime text 2.

I prefer to just hook up a keyboard shortcut to change the layout by editing the Preferences → Key Bindings - User file. Here is a 6 panel layout keyboard shortcut, which is working for me in Sublime Text 3.

[
    {
        "keys": ["alt+shift+6"],
        "command": "set_layout",
        "args":
        {
            "cols": [0.0, 0.25, 0.5, 1.0],
            "rows": [0.0, 0.5, 1.0],
            "cells":
            [
                [0, 0, 1, 1], [1, 0, 2, 1], [2, 0, 3, 1],
                [0, 1, 1, 2], [1, 1, 2, 2], [2, 1, 3, 2]
            ]
        }
    }
]
