Hi Tom,<br>
<br>
The preferences should persist no matter the kit. However, make sure
you have installed the same product bundle (Editor, Author or
Developer) as before and are using the same launcher (Editor, Author
or Developer) as before. Note that the Oxygen XML Editor product
bundle also includes launchers for Author and Developer in addition
to the Editor launcher. However, each of these launchers uses a
distinct set of preferences.<br>
Also, if you've upgraded to a new version of Oxygen (from v16.0 to
v16.1), the options get imported automatically in the new version
only the first time you start it.<br>
<br>
There are no obvious advantages of using Java SE 8 (from Oracle)
over Java SE 6 (from Apple) with Oxygen on OS X. Some would argue
that Java SE 8 is faster and thus better. However, currently for
best results we still recommend using Java SE 6 (from Apple),
because, so far, it has proven to be a more stable and better
integrated implementation for OS X than Oracle's. So currently we
can only recommend the Java SE 8 kit for those situations where the
other kit falters.<br>
<br>

<div dir="ltr">George, thanks for the help. I set the preferences
option to disallow editor detaching. I also downloaded the
alternative kit for Oxygen at the link you provided. However, I
noticed that with that version, I have to reset all my
transforms and other preferences. Are there any advantages to
using Java SE 8 over the other version of Java SE that the
regular 16.1 version of Oxygen uses (besides fixing the black
tabs issue)?

<div>Also, congrats on the release of 16.1. That looks like a
lot of new, useful features and updates.</div>

<br>
If you detach editor tabs frequently by accident, you can
disable this feature in Options > Preferences,
Perspectives Layout, "Allow detaching editors from the
main window".<br>
<br>
<br>
Regarding the black tabs, we've investigated and this can
indeed occur on OS X if you enable 'Mirror Displays' after
plugging in an additional display while Oxygen is running.
This seems to be an issue triggered by the docking
framework used by Oxygen when run with Java SE 6. We are
looking into updating the docking framework in the next
release of Oxygen.<br>
<br>
From what we tested this problem does not occur with Java
SE 8. So, if you find this issue annoying, you could use
the alternative kit of Oxygen for 'OS X 10.8 and later
(Includes Java SE 8)'. You can download it here (Oxygen
XML Editor):<br>

I watched them. It seems like detaching a tab is
done by dragging the tab while keeping the mouse
button depressed. However, my tabs are
occasionally detaching when I just click the tab.
Maybe I'm making a micro-drag gesture or
something, but it's quite annoying.

</div>
<div>Also, not sure why, but sometimes my tabs
turn black. Here's an example: <a

<div>I'm on a Mac using OSX Lion. The black tabs
phenomenon happens when I unplug from a Dell
monitor and then plug back in. It only happens
sometimes. To fix it, I have to totally quit
Oxygen and restart it.</div>

<br>
You can arrange the toolbars, side views and
editors by dragging from their tab and
dropping them to a new location.<br>
This video demo shows how this works:<br>

Please let us know more details if you think
there is an issue with detaching an editor
or a side view - right now I think there is
no option to disable this functionality.<br>
