Turn off double-click undock in VS2010

Question

I keep accidentally double-clicking my tabs in VS2010 and undocking them. Is it possible to turn off this behavior?

Note: I'm using Document Well 2010 Plus from the Productivity Power Tools, in case that makes a difference.

A good question! Personally I like (in other more configurable applications) to "double click" to close an active tab, and "double click" on the 'empty section' of the tab-bar to open a new, un-named document .. Any hints from anyone? – Hatcher

How can i add this feature as a wish list to MS? – Leprechaun

Great tip. If you have multiple monitors it makes for nice coding and I like this new feature of VS 2010. – Edgerton

Yeah, I discovered that elsewhere, makes this problem a hair less annoying. – Cumberland

Answer 3

As I know Power Tools don't change this behaviour. But you should probably add some kind of locking feature on their wish-list.

Marking this as the answer, because it doesn't appear to be possible. – Cumberland
