file/drawing tabs to bottom of screen

Hi all

I noticed that the file/drawing tabs are now situated up the top of the screen (between drawing and ribbon), whereas in 2012 it was at the BOTTOM of the screen.  Any way to change this back?

 

thanks in advance!

Those are not the same thing at all: which version of AutoCAD are you now using?

sorry, am NOW using 2014 (until yesterday was using 2012)

For clarity, attached is a pic showing where the tabs are now and where I'd like to put them, if possible

There were no tabs in 2012.
2014 is the first version to include drawing tabs.
You were using a 3rd party add-on in 2012.

To answer your question, AFAIK, there is no way to move them to the bottom. You could turn off the built in tabs and revert back to your 3rd party tabs app.

I like my file tabs at the top and my layout tabs at the bottom -- how confusing would it be with both at the bottom?

If by some odd chance my nattering was useful -- that's great, glad to help. But if it actually solved your issue, then please mark my solution as accepted 🙂

Drawing tabs are a terrible waste of space IMO. Ungroup common applications in the Windows taskbar and the "drawing tabs" will be at the bottom in the taskbar
