I'm using eclipse galileo. Is it possible to display the tabs of my open files on several lines instead of using the >> sign. I still want a unique window to view the code though.
If there is no such settings, do any plugin exists ?

A:
As far as I know, there is neither such setting nor plug-in (at least freely available). But if there is, I'd like to be corrected.

No.
Bug 58945: CTabFolder should support multi row and vertical style options, opened since 2004! (other bugs exist on the same topic)
CTRL+F6 is one workaround for now.
Other "workarounds" are listed in this thread:
- turn on the "close editors automatically" option (preferences > General > editors), which will close editors automatically when the limit is reached an a new editor is to be opened.
- make use of multiple windows each with a set of editors for areas you are editing or browsing or searching
- CTRL+Shift+W to close all tabs quickly

Ok, so that sounds like a definitive no. Sadly none of these workarounds are near to the behaviour I'm looking for.

@DrDo: I understand. You have here a long debate on the tabs in Eclipse, worth reading: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=68684#c27

A:
ctrl+shift+e gives a nice dialog with all open windows. ctrl+e gives the "quick" version of this dialog.
