When there are many files open in Editor, some are invisible as tabs.
You have to click < or > triangle buttons until a file you need
appears as tab.
It is very inconvenient.
Is it possible to show files as a vertical (drop down) list and allow
to choose?

I know there is separate Source Manager Window Manager. But it
requires switch back and forth between windows.

In the main menu, "Window->Tabs for project" shows such a list.

Great! Thanks Lucamar!
Also I've found it can be reached in pop-up menu by right click on any
tab.

Have you tried a right click an any of the tabs?

At the bottom of that menu are all the files, grouped by project or
package-name to which they belong.

If you do not want to click the tab, you can have that menu anywhere
in the editor, with the left or right mouse button in combination with
your choice of shift, ctrl, alt.
Go to Tools >Options > Editor > Mouse
Chose the mouse button you want, go to the drop-down for the
shift/ctrl combination you like, open the drop-down, scroll down,
chose: "context menu (tab)"
