Undock documentation - New documentation type entry

Hi,

we suggest to add the possibility to undock documentation tab and keep it open even if another entry is selected.
Sometimes we need to keep the documentation open when we open another entry.

For instance, we want to open a SSH session and keep the documentation tab, with the list of the shell command, visible. In this way is much better make the copy and paste of the commands.
In this moment we continue to switch among SHELL and documentation tab.
It is really frustrating.

In general we suggest to transform the documentation as a dedicated type of entry respect now that is a "property" of another type of entry.
The documentation entry types existing at the moment, in our opinion, are useless.

Regards
Marco

Hello,
I have created a ticket to allow the documentation to be opened in a separate tab. You will be able to undock it if you want to move it to another tab.

Hi David,

thanks for your reply.

What do you think about create a new entry type, group Document, called "Documentation Devolution" or whatever you want?

Without the left bar (action and edit), without overview and without asset.


with the possibility to be opened in a separated tab and, when is opened in a separated tab, is still possible work with other entries

Hello,
I could create an entry but that would mean for you to also configure a sub entry for each of your entry. What I had in mean instead was to let you open the documentation independently of the dashboard. I've found out while answering you that this is already available:



This will open another tab page next to the connection tab and you will be able to move it to another monitor. Could you give it a try?

Just one question: is it possible to insert a button, into the documentation tab, that permit to undock the documentation?
It is much faster then you have suggested.

Hello,
I'm glad it works. It's funny because I thought exactly the same thing: add a way to quickly undock it but I was not sure how to do it. I was thinking of a menu but it's much easier to do with you suggestion. I will update the ticket for that.

Perfect David!
Thanks

PS: anyway try to think about my idea to create a dedicated type entry.
At the moment we use a generic Information / Other entry type.
In our opinion is more useful add an entry for the documentation respect use the documentation tab of many entries (is more easy to show than explain).
The generic Information / Other entry type has some functionalities (e.g View Entry) that create only mess.
