Answer 1

The options discussed in the question you link to still apply to XE6. The key is to disable the embedded designer which allows forms to float outside the main IDE tab set.

From XE3, the option to enable/disable the embedded designer cannot be set from the IDE options. The setting can be set by modifying a registry key.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Embarcadero\BDS\14.0\Form Design
"Embedded Designer" (REG_SZ) = "False"

Change the value from True to False and restart the IDE to disable the embedded designer.

This is the appropriate key for XE6. For XE5 the version is 12.0, for XE4 it is 11.0, and so on.

However, FireMonkey forms can only be designed in the embedded designer, so none of this is of any use to you unless you have a VCL project.
