If you want to arrange your workbooks differently you can use one of the other options shown in the popup:

• If you select tiled, your workbooks will be shown tiled on a grid. This is very convenient if you have a large screen and more than two workbooks open.
• If you select horizontal Excel will show your workbooks stacked horizontally.
• If you choose vertical it will stack them vertically.
• If you choose cascade it will show your workbooks cascaded on top of each other.
