Idea #37: Allways-on-top mode for preview tabs

Written by krizas the 18 Aug 10 at 09:06. Category: User Interface. Related project: Nothing/Others. Status: New
Rationale
Currently preview tabs (material, texture etc.) in properties window scroll with the rest of tabs. When you scroll down in this window, for instance if you need to change some parameters, preview window moves out of sight. This makes direct preview of the changes impossible, especially when user has a small screen or has many open tabs in properties window.

Zeauro, the context is on top, but not the way Krizas proposes. And, by the way, that little panel is hard-coded, scripts have nothing to do with it.
If I understand Solution #1 well, the panel still should have its little header, allowing it to get closed or moved. The preview should just stay on top of Properties when scrolling down from it.

In that case, he can create an other Properties Editor that only show preview panel.
