Is there a way to open an image in a floating, resizable window?

In previous versions of PDE I could open an image (or for that matter, multiple images) as floating, resizable windows. Now, images seem anchored. How can I detact them from the big editing screen, such that I can move them around the computer screen as I could in the past?
Thanks,
Haly2k1

Open Editor and click Edit à Preferences à General
Then check the box “Allow Floating Documents in Full Edit Mode”

Floating inspector window?

What happened to the floating inspector window? Is there anyway to get this feature back in the latest Pages?

Because Pages 5 was knocked up in great haste and they have appalling or no Quality Control.
The new design fashion at Apple is to get rid of floating Inspectors and imitate Windows instead.
They don't seem to have anyone independently checking their work. I found it within minutes of opening Pages 5.
Apple likes to spring its surprises on its users, unfinished, document trashing, bugs and all.

Need to open all files in "Float in Window" option

Does anyone where the setting is so that when I open up a file instead of it opeining in full screen, it floats the image (ie. Window, Arrange, Float in Window)?
I have looked everywhere...thank you for your help!

In photoshop cs4 or cs5, Edit>Preferences>Interface and uncheck
Open Documents as Tabs.
If you don't use/like the tabs, you may want to uncheck
Enable Floating Document Window Docking also.

No floating cpu window

Yosemite does not have a floating cpu window?
What happened to the floating cpu window option in 10.10?
I'm trying to display the green vertical CPU activity bars, looks like that feature was dropped - am I missing something?

Hi, you mean this one?:
the thin green one I've been using on older OSes is less than half the width of this monster space-hog design -- I'm sorry to see it has been removed from Yosemite...

PSE 10 Float in Windows

I'm no longer able to select "Float in Windows" or Float All in Windows". These items don't activate; they remain dark. I can see only one image at a time now. Any ideas on how to get it back?
Thanks,
CM

In Editor, go to Edit menu>Preferences>General.
Check "allow floating documents..."

How can I make floating options windows behave like probe windows in LV 5.0?

Hello all,
I'm trying to use subVI's as small floating windows that appear and disappear on command. These windows provide access to controls that trigger functions in the calling VI.
I've already achieved this by calling the subVI's (which are set to be front most) continuously in the main loop when I want to see their front panels and then closing them when I don't want to see them using the close function in victl.llb.
This works, but there are some problems. The title bars of the floating front panels flash continuously when there is more than one panel open and if two panels overlap then the overlapping regions flash. Also, when I operate controls on the calling V
I (window maximized), the floating panels disapear. I also tried using invoke and property nodes with the same results.
I realize that this is because only one panel can be in front at any one time, so while calling them in a loop keeps them visible it also makes them flash and disappear behind the calling VI when I click on it.
Is there any solution to this? Is this addressed in LV 6i?
What I really need is for those floating windows to act like probe indicators. Is this possible?
I would greatly appreciate any help.
thank you,
Louis

There's an utility called LVWUTIL32 at http://zone.ni.com/devzone/explprog.nsf/6c163603265406328625682a006ed37d/ebf11dd1f0feaef3862566790072a983/ that has a vi to make a window topmost, with one difference, if you execute it once, the window will be topmost even if you click in the window under it, and it will be so until you revoke this option with another VI. In my system, no flashes were detected.
Hope this helps

Create a floating daughter window in pdf?

For my company's product catalog, I'm looking to make a floating window with the catalog's index on it that stays with you as you scroll down. Imagine a two page spread where the page on the right is much smaller and holds its position on your screen as you scroll through, so you always have a quick way to navigate without adding bulk to each individual page. Is this possible? If not, I would settle for an "index" button on every page that pops a little window up when you click it. I know it's possible to make something hidden, and its visibility is tied to another button, but it seems like it can only show things on the page itself, but I would much prefer a tiny popup window off to the side of the page.

The most efficient way would be using javascript!
Please use CONFIRM method, search in google for sample code.
if 'yes' button pressed then use 'trigger_server_event( 'event' )'
Hope it will help you.

Maximizing a floating document window makes the entire UI inaccessible

On Windows 7, with Photoshop CS6, if you drag a document tab out of the main application window, it becomes a floating document with its own window controls for minimize, maximize, and close just like a normal Windows OS document should. However, if you click the maximize window button, instead of maximizing within the primary application window like document windows are supposed to... the Photoshop document window expands to the full screen and covers up all user interface elements of the primary Photoshop application window. This makes all user interface elements completely inaccessible. Pressing the tab key will not show your tools like you'd expect, though shortcut keys still work.
The only way to get the user interface back is to restore the document window to a smaller size. If this is a feature, what would it be used for? Why do document windows in CS6 need to behave differently from the normal behavior of application and document windows on the Windows operating system?

If Adobe were to make the document "maximize" into the application window, there would no doubt be people who want to see it on the whole screen and are used to the way it works in Photoshop CS5 who would be upset. Plus, that's just not what the Maximize button on a window is supposed to do.
Your workaround is to avoid the Maximize button entirely and use the right-click Fit on Screen function (which really fits to document to the application window) or the keyboard equivalent - Control 0.

The float in windows option is grey and not accessable ? How can I copy from one image to another ? Elements 11

The float all in windows option is grey and not accessible ? How can I copy from one image to another ? Elements 11

You really are not getting this.
"I guess I am still completely shocked that as a parent we can't download something for everyone to use."
Why do you continue to think this although we keep telling you that this is not the case.
You do NOT have to purchase anything twice. You can share the music with as many ipods as you like in your household.
The ipods are designed to sync with your computer regularly. You should have been syncing these other ipods with your computer all along, thus transferring the purchases to your computer where that music can be synced to as many ipods as you like.
Take on of the ipods with the music in it. Open itunes on your computer. Plug in the ipod. Do not sync. Click File>Transfer Purchases This will transfer the purchases from the ipod to the computer. Make sure that you have authorized your account on the computer: here are directions for that. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
Unplug the ipod.
Plug in the other ipod with purchased music. Do not sync. Click File>Transfer Purchases This will transfer purchases from the ipod to the computer.
You can now plug in any of the ipods, select what you want to sync and sync.
Have a look at the manual for the ipod. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_touch_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf

Floating inactive windows behind photoshop

I work on Mac and CS6. My inactive images float BEHIND Photoshop, forcing me to minimize PS to access these windows. How do I get these inactive images to stay on top where I can easily access them

How to keep "float in window" always as default mode?

I am used to CS 3 on PC, and I am now using CS 4 on Mac. I find it very disturbing to my workflow when the arrange mode keeps triping back into tile mode. I'm really not even sure what activities trigger that, but it happens by itself as I am performing other tasks.
How can I lock the mode so it remains "floating" at all times unless I change it manually at the menu?
Thanks

I may be misunderstanding you but I have so far not observed the behaviour and I’m not even sure if the Arrange Documents-options can be assigned Shortcuts.
Could you, just to make sure, post a screenshot?

"floating" menu window?

i'm not sure if this the correct phrase, but i want to create a menu box that floats at one side of the page, so that when the browser scrolls down the page they don't lose sight of the pages links.
Is this possible in iWeb?
if not (which i suspect is the case) any idea how i can do it with any other method?
thanks in advance
Adam

It can be done, but it is javascript intensive.
I have such a thing in iweb2, it's all the same with iweb1, but not that easy to implement.
The real problem with iweb is that you have very little control over the elements you add to the page (text box, etc...), so you have to know iweb code and write your own javascript to control them.
Here is a variation of it:

How do I change position of video floating window in IDCS5 PDF export?

I have created an interactive document in InDesign CS5 (for Mac) that includes some movies. The page size is 1280 x 800 and the H264.mov files are 960 x 540 and 800x600. I place the movie in the center of the page at 100% size (without resizing either the movie object or the frame). The poster is set to None to keep it blank. In the PDF options, the Play Video in Floating Window box is checked, with the size set to 1x and the Position is set to Center by default but it is grayed out, with no option to change it.
When I export the document to PDF (Interactive) with both View and Layout set to Default and Buttons and Media set to Include All, the resulting PDF file opens the movie window in the upper right corner of the PDF document window. It does this whether viewing in Acrobat X Pro (10.1.2) or Acrobat Reader (9.5.0). I've tried opening the file on other computers and have the same issue. I've also created the same document in IDCS5.5 with the same outcome.
I'd like the movie to open in the center of the PDF document window. I've made other documents where it does this, but for the life of me can't figure out what I'm doing differently to cause the floating movie window to open in the upper right corner of the PDF document.
Any insight you could provide would be very helpful.
Thanks,
John

Thanks for your reply, Steve. I, too, believe there is a bug, but it's not in InDesign CS5, as I mentioned in my post, I was able to replicate the problem by opening the file in CS5.5 and exporting it to an interactive PDF. The movie again opens in the upper right corner.
However, if I create a NEW page in the document and place the same movie. it opens in the PDF reader centered in the page. I guess I could recreate the document if this is the only fix, but I thought that I may be doing something wrong, which apparently is not the case.

"If you have placed the video in InDesign in it's own frame, should you not leave this box unchecked?"
Rik, I didn't actually place the movie into a new frame. What I meant to say was that once the movie was placed into the document, I did not resize it. I found that if I don't have the PDF viewer open the movie in a flaoting window, the movie quality suffers if the PDF viewer opens in a larger size than the original InDesign page size (which can happen depending on how the user's PDF viewer is configured). However, the movie plays and views perfectly if it is in a floating window.

Why do I have grey 'Mac' window bars when a document is floating, and how do I get rid of them?

This is really annoying, as I'm used to working with the new black 'tabbed' look, but I find my PS now looks like this screen grab. How do I switch back to the black tabbed look for floating windows, rather than the Mac traffic lights?

I have Photoshop CC 2014 in Yosemite as well.
If your Interface Preferences have "Open Documents in Tabbed Windows" checkmarked, it should do that without fail unless you uncheck the Application Frame ((under Window menu in PS) in which case documents open in Windows.
Floating document windows will always have the gray bar, no matter the Color Theme you choose in Photoshop unlike Windows 7.
However if you go in Mac System Preference > General and choose "Graphite" under appearance, it will turn off the "traffic light" look and leave you with gray/white window control buttons.
If you minimize Photoshop in Windows, both PS and the Document Window will minimize, but in the Mac version, you can independently minimize the document window and the PS app. As far as I can see, there is nothing malfunctioning. Each OS has its' own way.
