Using Tabbed Conversations

New to the Lync 2013 client is the capability to use tabbed conversations, which is enabled by default. After starting one IM, simply double-click another contact to start a separate conversation and the windows will be automatically grouped together with tabs, as shown in Figure 25.3.

Figure 25.3. Tabbed conversations.

Users can adjust the order of the conversations by left-clicking on a conversation and dragging the tab up or down. Tabbed conversations can also be closed with a click of the X that appears on the right side of each tab.

Users can manually pop out a tab by right-clicking on it and selecting Pop Out Conversation. This can be useful when the user needs to separate the windows for reference.
