Is there a way to organize Delphi XE2/XE5 tabs editor in multitabs?

I have a lot of files to keep open, and the current single line of tabs is just difficult. I see that GExperts and CNPack does not have that (unless I missed that).

Is there any trick to achieve that, or any other suggestion that I could have more tabs visible?

The TIDEGradientTabSet (if it's still used in modern Delphi) doesn't support multiline view, so the only option for those IDE experts could be making own tab set control hiding the original one.

Alternatives are:

  • On the far right of the tabs is a small down arrow. Press that, and you'll see a list of all the files that are open in the editor;
  • Pressing Ctrl+B will open up a dialog to select a tab;
  • TMS has a free tool AltTab but it did not get update for while. That was exactly what was needed for Delphi IDE;
