CS5 Issues

I just bought CS5 and even though I knew this was a problem for me with this software I'm hoping someone here can help me out.

When I open up multiple photos in CS5 I click on "Float all in the Window" (I'd like this to be automatic) so I can have them all open and do my comparisons. All good till I find one I like and make it the only photo on the screen. I lose all my tools and have this showing after I make it bigger to edit.

I'd like it to look like way as in CS3 when I have multiple photos open. This way I can make the one I'm working on bigger and have all my tools available.

Another thing I've noticed is when I have multiple photos open in CS5 and then move them around in the workspace to take a look they'll overlap and then end up in a separate box of 2 photos open. You'll get this kind of double image till it clicks into the box. Anyone else see or get this happening?

Thank-you for your help :D

    on top of screen ,click window - arrange
    there you find the options you want
    drag the desired window by the title-bar upwards, it will "snap" and becomes the screen you meant
    [ minimize the other(s) ]

    another thing ;
    again drag them around and they will separate again

    it works similar as windows aero-peek
    just watch the mouse-pointer
    drag to the top = normal full screen
    drag against each other = combined view
    double-click = full screen
    double-click again= normal again

    I played around with what you told me to do and I'll be darn...that's amazing. Minimizing is the key to what I need to do to get what I want. Sometimes old ways are hard to break ... this is one of mine :D

    Thank-you for taking the time to help me out. Now I like my CS5 :D
