Disabling automatic minimization of new windows

I sometimes need to minimize a new window and drag it to the top of the screen so that I can see what I am doing beneath. The problem is that for a while after this, any new window I open comes up as the small size, and I have to drag it out manually to fit the screen. It does not seem to matter whether I shut down, the same thing happens on reboot. It stops after a while, not sure why. It is not a train smash but rather irritating. There has to be a way to stop it. Any suggestions gratefully received!

Hi,
I hadn't seen that option, we turned it off yesterday, so now I'm just waiting for confirmation that the scheduled crawling worked.

I work on two screens. With the new updates, my computer will not automatically open a new window on the second screen.

I work on two screens. With the new updates we cannot automatically open a new window on the second screen, but have to move them over manually. Not a huge problem, but because of the nature of the work, it gets tedious.

Hi Annowriter,
Thank you for your question, I understand that it is annoying to have to move a new window to the second screen. Since it opens in the active screen this may have been a stored preference, however it is not the default.
There is an add on called [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/monitor-master/ Monitor Master] that customizes settings like this. Check it out.

When I click on a link that opens up automatically in a new window (ie internet banking), it will not load at all.Page remains blank.

Links that open in new windows do not load. The page remains blank. I have downloaded other web browsers and these pages all work with these browsers. I have been using firefox for years and this has only started happening in the last month or so. Is there an update that can fix this? I have also uninstalled and then reinstalled firefox and still the same thing.
There are no error messages, just a picture of a white sheet of paper in the top left hand corner with the writing "search book marks and history". New tabs are working, it's just the new windows that won't load.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Automatically open a new window when entering a specific page

Hi
I have a request I cant seem to solve:
1) On screen A the users presses a button and a collection is parsed on
2) Screen B retrieves the collection, and passes control to a procedure producing lots of htp.p output (sor far so good, works like a dream)
The above is solved using processes in both 1) (after submit) and 2) before regions
3) The end users wants screen C to occur in another window automatically (it's various backgriund stuff, they need to see as well as screen B). So its not good enough to just have another panel with the data.
How can I achieve 3) without adding a button to screen B It shuld popup automatically?
regards
Mette

Hello Mette,
Try this:
1) Create a new page C. Be sure that the Page Template is set to Popup.
2) Add this javascript to the HTML Header in page B (replacing the page # in url with the page # for page C and adjusting width and height to your liking):
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

</script>3) Add this to the HTML Body Attribute for page B:
onload="javascript:showPopup();"This will pop up page C after page B has loaded.
Hope this helps,
John

Disabling automatic crawling of new items

Hello,
We have a CMS system that works together with SAP Knowledge Management in the portal. However when we create a new document the crawler automatically starts to crawl the created content.
Due to performance reasons we would like to disable this and only have the crawler/trex indexing and categorizing this according to our schedule.

All of a sudden when I right click to open in a new tab, it automatically opens a new window...what to do?

I use firefox at work and at home but it only happens on my work computer.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Links that automatically open in new window trigger firefox header bug (only happens when working in maximized state - see screenshot in details)

nvm :)

it's gonna be fixed in 4.0.1

When I click images or links that should automatically open in a new window, instead a new blank window opens.

For some time now and after firefox has automatically been updated a few times, I click on images or links which are supposed to open in a new window automatically. A new window opens but it is blank with no toolbars, just an adress bar with nothnig in it.

mha007, Thank you. I walked through your suggested solutions and finally disabled all add-ons and restarted them one by one. The culprit seems to be ViewSourceWith 0.8.11. Interestingly when it is enabled I had to go to TaskManager to force Firefox to quit.
Maybe this information will help others. I don't know if the cache clearing etc helped but I would suggest that others start but Bringing up Firefox in Safe Mode (hold shift when you select the icon), disable all add-ons and then start them one by one.
Of course if you have ViewSourceWith maybe you should just disable it first rather than go through the tedium of restarting each add-on separately. To get to the add-ons when it won't open from the toolbar type about:addons in the address area.

How to Stop the Iview from Opening a New Window automatically

Hi
I have imported a BW roles that has 3 folders for different reports into the portal.
I would like the reports to display in a new window and have set the paramater "Launch in New Window" = "Display in New Window".
I have also set the parameter "Initial State Open or Closed" = "Close".
When I click on one of the tabs (represented by the role folder) the first report automatically opens in a new window.
I would only like this report to open when the user clicks on the report in the folder. Can anyone advise on any other setting that needs to be made?
Many thanks....

Yes, the the Default Entry for Folder property is set to NO.
The first report in the folder still automatically launches a new window for the report.
There does not appear to be a setting "Clicking Folder Name Launches First Node" for the folder.
As a workaround I have created a page and added the following 2 settings.
1. Invisible in Navigation Areas = Yes.
2. Default entry for folder = Yes.
I would prefer to avoid this workaround so if anyone can provide any help it would be appreciated.
Thanks

JSP automatically opening new window

I have been using the following construct in my servlets to get to my JSP.
RequestDispatcher rd = new RequestDispatcher(URL);
rd.forward();
This works well.
Now, I want to be able to automatically
open a new window from the JSP and
pass the request and response.
Is this possible?

If you want to forward the request and the response obj from the servlet to the jsp then use this:
//inside servlet
RequestDispatcher rd = request.getRequestDispatcher( URL );
rd.forward(request, response);
the request object of the servlet is capable of retrieving the RequestDispatcher.
then when you call the forward method you can pass the request and response object to the resource specified in the getRequestDispatcher.
As far as opening the jsp page in a new window that can be done in html.
Here is an idea of what it might look like:
//inside jsp
<someHtmlTag target="_window">
something like that. I am just not sure which html tag it should be placed in.
I'll get back to you.
I hope this helps

How do I set Safari to automatically resize new window when opening a link?

Here is the scenario. I have one Safari window open, I click a link that is on that page, I have Safari set to open a new window (not a new tab) so that is what it does. It opens a new window from that link, but the new window is too small. It is about 1/4 the size of a window that fills up the screen. How do I set up Safari so that when I open a link in a window, it automatically resizes the new window to fill the screen?
Thanks much,
Paula Jo

Hi Paula Jo
Next time a new window automatically opens, resize it to the desired size by dragging the lower right corner. Then, click on the red button in the upper left to close it.
Now, select a link in your existing browser window to open the 2nd window. It ought to be the same size as what was set previously.
Let me know if that works.

Open new window in the same form

Hi
I created a form with 6 records displayed. I have a check box for each record. I would like to select a record and make the check box checked. Once I check a checkbox I would like to automatically open a new window in the same form with further details of the checked record. Could you please help me how I could work on this.

Dear you have to create relation between the blocks then you can achieve this like:
1) Create two canvases in your form (canvas1 and canvas2).
2) Create a window in your form with name Window2 now you have two windows (Window1 and Window2).
3) now set the property 'Primary Canvas' of each window (Window1 = Canvas1, window2 = Canvas2)
4) Now create database block of you main table with (CAT, NAME, DEPT) fields and select the Canvas1 in the layout wizard.
5) Create another database block with same table but this time select only 3 fields (CAT,SAL, DATE) and at the time of creation mention relation between blocks in the Data block wizard (block1.cat = block2.cat) and select the Canvas2 in the layout wizard.
6) Now create check box field name MASTER_CHBOX in first block and set Database Item property no of this check box item and set the Value When Checked property to Y and N for Value When unChecked.
7) Create a trigger on CheckBox Item and paste below code in it.
if :MASTER_CHBOX = 'Y' then
show_window('WINDOW2');
go_item('SAL');
end if;
Regards.

JavaScript and "Open In New Window" not working.

I've been using Safari 5 since it came out and there were no problems. But recently my JavaScript has stopped working. Whenever I click on a link that is supposed to run a script nothing happens. Similarly when I click a link that is supposed to open automatically in a new window, nothing happens. I've tried reseting Safari but that did not help. I had this same issue with Safari 4 and the update to 5 solved it, but now I do not know what to do.

HI and welcome to Apple Discussions...
From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Security tab.
Make sure Java is enabled.
And, from a Finder window select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. Then open the Library folder, then the Caches folder, then the com.apple.Safari folder. Move the cache.db file to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari. If you still have problems, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop.
Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference. If not, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder. If Safari functions as it should, move that .plist file to the Trash.
I had this same issue with Safari 4 and the update to 5 solved it, but now I do not know what to do.
If nothing above helps, install the v10.6.4 Combo Update
Then repair permissions.
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and *restart your Mac*.

Multiple new windows opens when I click on any folder in Administrator (user account) folder.

Whenever, I try to open any folder or sub-folder in my Administrator account, it automatically opens new multiple
windows with same folder.
For example, I tried to open a folder in my "Downloads" it automatically opened 2 new windows with same folder contents.
What should I do to open it in the same window?
Is there any way to repair this annoying problem...
Somebody please help!

Hi,
If the above setting
arnavsharma provided is configured properly, please try following things:
Open up Registry Editor, and go to:
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxx-1000\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
Delete "Explorer". It will be re-created.
Reboot to see what's going on.

[newb] External disk always in new window?

Hello,
Whenever using my external disk it always opens the folders in a new window. As you can imagine the screen gets rather cluttered in this instance if the directory tree is deep. I want it to open folders in the same window.
It does this: http://imgur.com/uVW2q.png
In Finder Preferences I have unchecked "Always Open Folders In A New Window". This works for the internal HDD but not for the external ones.
Am I missing a setting somewhere or am I stuck with this behaviour?
Thanks.

Hi azrin
Select preferences from the Finder menu and under the general tab ensure that "Always open folders in a new window" is not selected.
Also folders will automatically open in new windows when the windows are in the state they're in on the screen shot. Clicking the round disclosure button on the top right corner of the finder window will revert them to a state where the folders will no longer open in new windows.
Hope this helps
J.C
