[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #60481] Include figures into the GUI's main window

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #60481 (project octave):

Yes, I was able to rearrange dock widgets. I made an extensive comment about
this, but it got dropped somehow. Maybe I wasn't properly logged in. 

I completely agree with changing the title of this feature request to include
figures in main window.

The Octave GUI seems to make extensive use of a Qt feature called dockable
widgets. The main window is divided in to left and right regions. Within these
regions the various Windows (Command Window, File Browser, Editor, etc) can be
either stacked vertically or on top of each other. Tabs are automatically
added if they are stacked on top of each other. The system is quite flexible.
Windows can even be popped out of the main GUI and dragged anywhere on the
desktop.

To rearrange windows, you have to drag the window's title area to where you
want it. The title area has the window name (e.g. Command Window, Editor) in
small font on it's top left and undock and hide buttons on the right.
