I can go back and forth between Project Manager, for doing the side by side compares, and Source Control Manager to stage the changes. But another problem is the commit message that always seems to get removed when I change tabs. But I was having a problem with the commit message getting cleared. Like forever I have been able to click on commit and add to the commit message and now it is cleared every time I go in. Just now while trying to figure out what it took to clear the message I accidentally did a commit on half my files using the message "Hi Bob". Insanity.
