David,

Perfect! The right click is what I was missing. Now I can work with the tab
bar in either position.

Thank you very much.

I leave lots of tabs open across the top of the window.  When I want to go
to a tab that I  cannot see, I right click on the tab bar and choose the tab
from the dropdown list.
