Bring the Tabbed Document feature back in version 2022.1.

After multiple years of using Alteryx, The tabbed document feature was left out of 2022.1.  This feature allows for a much cleaner canvas for exploring workflow and output data.  I view this feature as a basic function of Alteryx, I was surprised to find out that the development team intentionally omitted this function.   I really don't want to revert back to older versions but it may be only the way to have a more comfortable feel of Alteryx.

I looked at the Designer 2022.1 Release Notes | Alteryx Help It mentions "Interface Designer as a tabbed doc causes panel changes. - Fixed" but nothing about leaving the feature out. Is there any more information about this?

Please Please - Developers.  If it ain't broke, don't fix it.  There's nothing that users like less than having to re-learn a software, just because someone wanted to do something new.  If it works - don't change it!!!  I want to use my time to analyze the data, not re-learn the software every time there is a new version.. . . . again.

This feature desperately needs to be brought back.  I am having to revert to an older Alteryx version to be able to teach my class.  If I don't then I constantly have to keep hiding and unhiding the results as a popout when lecturing.  I don't want to view the results embedded because I am teaching with a small laptop computer and you can hardly see either the workflow when embedding or the results.  I guess if you taught with a 40" laptop screen then it would be fine to have everything embedded but that isn't feasible.  Please bring tabbed document results option back Alteryx!  This is a pretty substantial user discomfort flaw that you have introduced by disabling the option.

I can only support this idea, makes no sense, consumes space  which I need for the canvas...

 

So, please, please, please, don't improve by remove in the future!!!!
