Groove tip: An underused feature of groove is its ability to remember windows from one session to another. What is underused is not that people do not understand this - they just don't know how to make use of it. The answer is simple, right click on a tab and "Open Tool in New Window". That's it. In http://www.groove.net/support/forums/messageview.cfm?catid=11&threadid=9507 john.morris complained about this. His second point "LINEAR VISUAL INTERFACE" reports how well the humble maximizer does in this area. It is true that Maximizer excels in this arena: it is a mature product that worked hard on using screen real-estate.
Groove is getting better but the "Open Tool in New Window" has been around for a long time. Use it for key tabs and I am sure your Groove productivity will seriously improve.
