I usually run into a problem if I click on the right-most tab or on the left-most tab; the contents and file don't switch but the tab does when I click on another tab. Other combinations of clicks seem to switch properly (of course I haven't tested all permutations).<br>

I should explain what I do and what I see:<br>
<br>
1. I am set up to use tabs in all apps<br>
<br>
2. I have a source (beamer) file that inputs 7 individual frames as separate files. In my case the individual files are named L20-1.tex through L20-7.tex. (If it makes any difference, the title slide is produced by the source file; file L20-X.text produces slide with page # X.)<br>
<br>
3. I launch TS by clicking on the source file. This opens up the source as a single tab and also the PDF window.<br>
<br>
4. I open additional source files by command-click on the pdf (each page in my case is a separate file). This opens up the source files as tabs. <br>
<br>
With the preference "Open as Tab in Root Window" *unchecked*, everything is normal: the name of the tab and the name of the window that contains all the tabs are in sync. If I activate a tab by clicking on it, the name of the active tab matches the name on the window. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
With the preference "Open as Tab in Root Window" *checked*, I see the following:<br>
<br>
1. I command click on the slide # 1 on the PDF, which open L20-1.tex. I now have two tabs open, the source file and the first slide and switching through them is normal.<br>
<br>
2. I command click on slide #2; this opens L20-2.tex while keeping tab L20-1.tex as the active tab.<br>
<br>
3. I activate tab L20-2.tex: this switches the active tab to L20-2.tex but the name of the window remains L20-1.tex. <br>
<br>
>From here on only the source file is synced between the name that appears on the tab and the name that appears on the window. If I activate tab L20-1.tex the window reads L20-2.tex, and if I activate tab L20-2.tex the window reads L20-1.tex.<br>
<br>
This behavior is reproducible each time. <br>
