PyCharm makes it possible to detach editor tabs, and move them to separate frames.

To detach an editor tab, do one of the following
  • Drag this tab outside of the main window. A preview thumbnail appears:

The content of the editor tab opens in a separate frame.

To attach an editor tab
  • drag it from its frame and drop to the main PyCharm frame until tab name appears:
