Android Studio Multi-Windows for one project

Question

I am wondering if anyone knows how to open two windows of Android Studio with both of the same project. I know that you can drag and drop tabs, but this allows you to edit only one file. I want two full-featured windows, each of which can see the project files / structure.

I don’t want to just split the editor, I want a separate window.

I want two of these windows to both look at the same project:

I do not want to use one of these windows, since I cannot view the project structure and change it, and it is difficult to change it to another file in this view:

Answer 1

Right-click on the file tab and click "Split Vertical / Horizontal"

Answer 2

If you click and drag the file tab from the current window (for example, to the desktop), the file will open in a new window. However, this window does not seem to have the entire package explorer, console, etc.

Although, if you press the gear on any of the modules, you can uncheck the “fixed” mode, and you can move them around the two monitors, like the window that you created above.

Answer 3

If you want to split the tabs of an android studio project between monitors, you can set it to a tab (project, debugging, terminal, etc.) and check the "floating mode" option.

See image: Floating tab tab

After that, you can drag this tab between monitors into a new window.

Answer 4

Window → editor tabs → Split vertically

if you do not use file tabs

Answer 5

Just drag the tab outside the current window.

Answer 6

First check if you can open multiple instances of Android Studio ( How to start multiple instances of Android Studio ).

Try starting the second project in a different instance:

File> Open> projectToOpenInTwoWindows

Two copies of the same project!

The changes will affect both instances, and you will have all the tools in both windows!
