Multiple Tabs
When you open a database object such as table, view, function, etc, TablePlus uses a tab to show it.
When you open a new database object within the same database:
If the current object is modified, TablePlus will pin it to the current tab and the new object will be opened in a new tab.
If the current object is not modified, the new object will replace the current object in the same tab.
