Tabbed vs anchored panels?

Post by W1tchseason »

Hi - sorry if I'm being stupid here.
I want to show the 'Categories' and 'Catalog filter' panels anchored to the right-hand side of the XNViewMP window as single vertical columns, but I can't seem to be able to do that.
I can grab the title bar and have them float, but when I drag a title bar to the edge of the window the only options I seem to have are to anchor it above another panel or as a tabbed panel on top of another one. So I don't seem to be able to view the Categories and Catalog filter panels side-by side.
Am I right in thinking that XNViewMP is limited to one columns of panels either side of the central list view?
Also, if I click on a category to filter the view, how do I 'uncheck' the filter so that I see all files again?
Finally, it would be nice to be able to view multiple columns in the categories panes - I have 120+ categories and have to keep scrolling to find the one I want.

Thanks :-)
