New laptop, can't get GIMP set up correctly
#2
A new laptop. If it has a high definition display, it can be awkward, let us know.

For general information there is this: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Managi...-positions

For Windows, some users have problems dragging and dropping tabs into different positions, use the little drop down menu and arrange as required
A quick animation: https://i.imgur.com/VDdxQsu.mp4 both opens closes tabs and locks in position. You need to apply that lock to individual tabs (such as fonts), it is not universal.

I you like old style settings, there are options in Edit -> Preferences
Tools Groups- untick for a Gimp 2.8 layout: https://i.imgur.com/sH8dMrW.jpg although I advise using the groups.
Old style (wide) sliders: https://i.imgur.com/J0auoEt.jpg
Themes, and I hate the default black theme: https://i.imgur.com/IGpgmST.jpg
Icon style and size: https://i.imgur.com/PN7yFgF.jpg
