  • VSCode Version: 1.15.1, 64 bit
  • OS Version: Windows 10 64 bit

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Open markdown file, click the preview button
  2. File/New Window
  3. Try and drag just the preview part to the new window

It would be really nice if I could drag the markdown preview to a new window so I can edit the markdown on one monitor and see the preview result on another monitor.

Also anything that uses the vscode.previewHtml command.
Right now the only options are to open on a side-panel or as a new tab that, as pointed out by @lovettchris, cannot be manually dragged to a new window.

Hi @lovettchris also use two monitors to edit Markdown files with VSCode, as workaround I expand the window across all monitors like this:

This way I can edit my markdown files in one monitor and see rendered changes in the other 😅

A workaround for me now it's use Markdown Viewer. Autoreload is include.

Another workaround:
use VSCode in the Cloud with code-server and let the browser take care of dragging the tabs around!
