Parallel Tabs only allowing one horizontal plane

[olliebergh]

When I click "add parallel," I'm only allowed to add from right to left. I cannot have anything below, which I at one time was able to do.

 

Let me visualize:

 

Right now I can only have

 

1 | 2 | 3 | 4

 

whereas in the past I used to be able to

 

1 | 2

----

  3

 

When I try to drag a window pane below, it does not allow me. Same for trying to drag above. I can reposition on the horizontal axis all I like, however.

Under Preferences, General, is “Open Parallel tools and notes in vertical orientation” checked? That can force those panes to go vertical.

That was it! Thank you--so silly I didn't understand that check box.

Glad that worked!

 Hi @Nathan Parker.  Do you have any other suggestions?  I tried getting a parallel tool to open horizontally below the other parallel text but it didn't work.  I can only parallel a tool vertically to the right or left not horizontally below.

You can try dragging and dropping the pane to see if it’ll go horizontal. Are you on a large screen? Sometimes large screens won’t shift stuff horizontally for quite a bit.

I tried dragging and no I'm on a Surface Pro 7.

Hmmm, trying to think on this one. Maybe another user can chime in. Otherwise you can try emailing support.
