In Ubuntu 18.10, in the Files app (Nautilus) I could drag a tab outside to make it a separate window. This is the same behavior as in Firefox or Google Chrome.
In 19.04 this no longer works.
How can I enable it?

1@N0rbert, no. It not splits the view, but creates a separate window with the tab being dragged. – PET3R Apr 26 '19 at 15:00
It seems that GNOME developers have removed this option instead of fixing the underneath problem.
I see that it was working as expected in Nautilus inside 18.10:
but now this option is missed.
I have reported bug 1826586 to launchpad.
If you hate such surprises as me do, then I can recommend you to switch to traditional desktop environments such as Xfce or MATE. And of course use LTS versions of Ubuntu with 5 years support.
