Are you aware that, at least
in Win. that you can move between documents using Alt+tab? I find that much
faster than trying to use a mouse. If you have a bunch of tasks running
it's
not so handy, but normally you are only switching between a few windows and
it is very quick.
Are you aware that if you press Ctrl+Tab you can do the same between
documents (or tabs) within the same program? :)

That works also, but ALT+Tab for me, is an easier finger movement and Win
treats each document in LO or OO as a separate window so if I have to bounce
between two LO windows either one accomplishes the task.

As I said, that is Windows, but what about both Linux or Mac? The idea of tabbed documents IN LibreOffice would be a cross-platform idea and not depend on knowing a shortcut for a particular platform.

It would be nice to have this tabbed option like in Firefox. It would be easier to use than having multiple LO tasks in the task bar [bottom, side, or top of the screen] when you already have 4 or 5 other packages open at the same time. The idea is a good one to look into. Other non-office packages are either doing it by default, or by extension. LO user might benefit from such an idea, since they may already using the idea in those other packages. I sure use tabs in my Firefox and Thunderbird use. It would help me when I use LibreOffice, sometimes.
