In version 85 it's now possible to combine panes like this, and use tabs at the bottom to switch between them.
 
 
 
Can we have these tabs at the top instead?  From a UI/UX perspective I believe the tab location should be consistent.  I also see under Tools > Options > General there is now the option to place tabs at the bottom.  If it's not too difficult, I'd think you'd just want that setting to apply universally.  i.e. if it's unchecked ALL tabs should be at the top (grid window AND panes), if checked, ALL tabs at the bottom (grid window AND panes).
 
Thanks

I have to oppose :) It is standard practice of most programs to have "dockable" views of different elements (search pane, bookmarks) listed on the bottom if they occupy the same place, while equivalent elements such as Grids/browser tabs/pdfs to have top view.
 
An option could be added for the position of the dockable panes but IMO it should be a completely NEW option, i.e. allowing the user to have grids on the bottom while dockable panes on the top or any other of the four possible combinations.

In v86, there is an option for the position of workspace tabs and for pane tabs !
