Unable to open new documents (eg: eclipse find) in tab

Unable to open new documents (eg: eclipse find) in tab

I came across following workaround:

System Preferences -> Dock.

Click the “Prefer tabs when opening documents” pop-up menu, then choose Always.


But the issue is that I am unable to find this option “Prefer tabs when opening documents” in Dock section of System Preferences.

My OS is OS X El Captain (10.11.6)

Mac Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)

That option was not available until Sierra, OS X 10.12, which would explain why you (& I) can't see it in El Capitan.
