API for moving editor tabs between splits

IntelliJ Platform
1

I’d like to sort open editor tabs. Which API options do I have for creating splits and moving open editor tabs between splits?

I am afraid we do not have such a public API at the moment. You could create a YT issue and request that we promote com.intellij.openapi.fileEditor.impl.SplitterService API but it will take a while.

Hello! Actually, we have an API for opening files in particular split windows and creating new splits.

Please check the example of moving the file to the new split window: com.intellij.ide.actions.SplitAction

APIs:
com.intellij.openapi.fileEditor.impl.EditorWindow - the container for files (editor tabs)
com.intellij.openapi.fileEditor.impl.EditorsSplitters - the container for Editor Windows (splits)
com.intellij.openapi.fileEditor.ex.FileEditorManagerEx - service where you can get the currently selected EditorSplitters and do many other things.
