Force New Window at Far Left

Is there a way to tell Safari to open a new window at the far left instead of shifting it a bit? Or, is there a pref somewhere that allows me to tell Safari to open all windows at the same place?
What I need in fact is opening new windows full screen (through Freeway actions). No way I can do that: Safari shifts the window to the right.
Thanks everybody.

And then there is the general human revulsion to
change in general. Many of the same problems and many
of the same arguments against the changes appeared
when the old forum organization was introduced at the
end of 2003.
This is where we differ, Tom. Change for change is not a good thing, and we see it too often. Stupid as it may be, many had also levels in mind when contributing. The surgical change is not welcome IMHO. I am ready to give it a chance and wait for personalized icons, dictionary... and much more.
It is however a fact, not a statistical one for sure, that my last two questions were not answered prior to my second post (oops there was a post for the other one). I posted both problems to MacOSG amd had rapid and satisfyiing answers. In other words, my questions were "solved", including this one.
The answer goes along those lines, with answers still coming in from Kerr, Bmer and others:
javascript:self.moveTo(0,0);self.resizeT (screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight);
or:
javascript:moveTo(0,22);window.resizeTo(800,546);
or whatever combination of those at will. This will go into my Freeway-generated code and I will come back in a few days to tell if it works OK or not. It should, I think.

  • Dual monitor - force new windows to always open on primary monitor?

    I use my secondary monitor to watch streaming TV in internet browser windows.  When I have finished watching streaming TV and the secondary monitor is switched off, Safari still opens new browser windows on the secondary monitor by default (presumably due to the fact that the last active browser window was open on the secondary monitor).  This is irritating and means I have to switch the secondary monitor back on to drag the new browser window back to the primary display.  The secondary monitor is connected by VGA.
    This is a minor niggle, rather than a major issue, but it is irritating nevertheless!  Does anyone know if there is a way to force new windows to always open on primary monitor, regardless of where the last active window was?
    Any help much appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    Ben

    After many days i found solution:
    Run the client and get it set up the way you prefer, or Open your saved RDP file
    On the Display tab, choose a non-fullscreen resolution.
    On the General tab, click "delete these credentials", if possible.
    Click Connect .
    You will immediately get a local login dialog. Leave it blank and click
    OK .
    When you are connected and the remote login dialog appears, drag the window to the desired monitor.
    On the remote login dialog, click Cancel . The settings dialog should reappear locally.
    On the Display tab, you can now choose fullscreen.
    You can now save your session with the Save button on the
    General tab, as well as save your login credentials.

  • Force new windows to open in tabs?

    Is there a plug-in or AppleScript that will force links that are set to open in new windows to instead open in a new tab?

    No - I mean for links that are that are desigend to open a new browswer window - can I have Safari treat the "new window" directive as "new tab" instead? (I love the fact that Mail and etc. opens a new tab, I just want links on the web to do the same.)

  • Force 'New Window' with links?

    When creating a link in iWeb, is there a way to force a 'New Window' option?
    powerbook g4 12"   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    I have an article on my site about this, that involves using Hexmonkey's MassReplaceIt and adding some extra text to the address within iWeb. Although the article goes into great detail about what the HTML does and what is changed to make a link open in a new window, it does not in fact involve any manual HTML editing - the app does it for you! I use this method in iWeb now to get selected links opening in new windows. The beauty of it is that I chose within iWeb itself which ones open in new windows, and don't have to manually browse through a webpage post publish trying to remember which links need to open in new windows.
    It's under Articles > Opening Links in New Windows.

  • Links that force new windows - new tabs instead?

    Hi, I know Apple doesn't really go to this forum, but I didn't really see any sort of "Safari Feedback" page. (I only saw the Report a Bug to Apple thing)
    I know that by default, most links will open in the current tab you are using if you click on them, or open in a NEW tab if you Command-Click or Middle Mouse click. Ok, cool.
    Plus there is a setting in Safari in which links from Applications open in new tabs if you wish. This is cool, I like that.
    However, there are SOME links in pages, where their default setting is to NOT open in the current window/tab, but instead open in a whole new window. Now this is cool and all, as the web designer probably has a reason for keeping the current window accessible, and creating the new window as an alternate. This is cool and all, however I would like these instances to be created in a new TAB instead of a new window. I know Firefox has this option where links which normally create new windows create new tabs instead.
    Is there some setting in Safari I am missing? (normally I am pretty thorough) If not, is there a location in which I can suggest this feature for an upcoming release of Safari? Thanks!
    (other than that, I am loving my switch to the Mac, as well as the switch to Safari!)

    Hi,
    You can provide feedback to Apple here.

  • Force new window to open in new tab

    Now my safari open pages from the original pages to the new pages, I tried to set Safari to open pages in new tabs. I tried Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Tabs ▹ Open pages in tabs instead of windows: Automatically or Never or Always, but it still opened the pages on the original one.

    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
    Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
    If that doesn't help ...
    Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Safari.plist
    Click Go then move the com.apple.Safari.plist file to the trash.
    Quit, relaunch Safari and test again.

  • [SOLVED]KDE 4: forcing new windows so they start centered..

    Hello,
    I have this simple problem and I can't google the solution. I don't like the default behaviour of window creation, when they are automatically placed in the left corner of my active workspace. I would like to have them centered on screen - is there a way to acheive this?
    Best regards,
    Mike.
    [EDIT] I am sorry for troubling You - I just found a way to do this using window specific settings in system settings.

    Um, no.  Good question toad.  This is what I'm getting:
    # mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /mnt/win
    Unexpected clusters per mft record (-1).
    Failed to startup volume: Invalid argument
    Failed to mount '/dev/sda1': Invalid argument
    The device '/dev/sda1' doesn't have a valid NTFS.
    Ok, I've tried a couple things now and got it fixed to a degree.  When I installed a swap partition in the middle of the partitions, this altered GRUB's knowledge of the partition tables, and I had to reinstall it.  During this I accidentally installed GRUB 'setup (hd0,0)' to the Windows partition.  But I don't think this caused the problem.  I say this because when I did [wiki]MBR#Restoring_a_Windows_Boot_Record[/wiki] the Windows partition still didn't show in Dolphin.  Instead, I had to repair the Boot Sector as described by a friendly guy in the Ubuntu forums.  Because this was a Boot Sector issue, it looks like the fdisk command did this.   Anyways, I'll describe it quickly here in case anyone else comes across it.  What you need to do is boot from a LiveCD and either install TestDisk or use a Rescue CD like Parted Magic that does, then start 'testdisk' and do these steps:
    No log
    Choose Disk > Proceed
    Intel
    Advanced
    Select partition > Boot
    Rebuild BS > Write
    And voila, next reboot, I'm able to see and mount my Windows partition again.  Phew.  So it looked like the problem is fixed, but not quite.  When I rebooted and tried to load Windows GRUB hung, it showed one line, something like 'GRUB loading stage2' and it wouldn't go any further.  Has anyone run across this before?  I use Windows from time to time so, hoping to find a way to get this fixed.

  • If I already have firefox open in Linux, how can I open a new URL in a new window.

    I want to be able to click on a button, and have firefox open a new window at a given URL. Currently, if I already have firefox running, then it opens a new tab, which may be on a different desktop. Having to detach the new tab to a new window and move it back to the right desktop seems like unnecessary work.

    If you mean a shortcut or link ''completely outside of Firefox,'' there is a hidden preference to change how that works. This requires a visit to the about:config preferences editor. I think it's (C) below that you might want to change.
    In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    In the filter box, type or paste '''link.o''' and pause while the list is filtered.
    Double click these and set the value as desired:
    '''(A) browser.link.open_newwindow'''
    3 = divert new window to a new tab (<u>default</u>) (checked*)<br>
    2 = allow link to open a new window (unchecked*)<br>
    1 = force new window into same tab
    '''*''' First checkbox in Options > Tabs
    '''(B) browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction''' - for links in Firefox tabs
    0 = apply the setting under (A) to ALL new windows (even script windows)<br>
    2 = apply the setting under (A) to normal windows, but NOT to script windows with features (<u>default</u>)<br>
    1 = override the setting under (A) and always use new windows
    '''(C) browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external''' - for links in other programs
    -1 = apply the setting under (A) to external links (<u>default</u>)<br>
    3 = open external links in a <u>new tab</u> in the last active window<br>
    '''2 = open external links in a <u>new window</u>'''<br>
    1 = open external links in the <u>last active tab</u> replacing the current page
    Does that work?

  • Always enjoyed being able to open new windows in a tab. However, after upgrading found I was no longer able to do this.

    Have search all over web and tried every solution I could find; explored addons, restored, even reinstalled 19.0 but I am still unable!
    It is very frustrating.
    Would appreciate suggestions (never thought I'd say this but Safari is looking good!).
    Thank you.

    Let me see if I understand the original problem. You can checked the preference on the following tab to divert new windows to tabs instead:
    Firefox menu > Preferences > Tabs
    And that was not working correctly, either on all sites or a few particular sites.
    Note that by default, sites that open a new window with particular specifications, such as the size, bypass that setting. To force even those windows into a new tab, you can use the about:config preference editor.
    In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    In the filter box, type or paste '''link.o''' and pause while the list is filtered.
    Double click these and set the value as desired:
    '''(A) browser.link.open_newwindow'''
    '''3 = divert new window to a new tab''' (<u>default</u>) (checked*)<br>
    2 = allow link to open a new window (unchecked*)<br>
    1 = force new window into same tab
    '''*''' First checkbox in Options > Tabs
    '''(B) browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction''' - for links in Firefox tabs
    '''0 = apply the setting under (A) to ALL new windows (even script windows)<br>
    2 = apply the setting under (A) to normal windows, but NOT to script windows with features (<u>default</u>)<br>
    1 = override the setting under (A) and always use new windows
    '''(C) browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external''' - for links in other programs
    -1 = apply the setting under (A) to external links (<u>default</u>)<br>
    '''3 = open external links in a new tab in the last active window'''<br>
    2 = open external links in a new window<br>
    1 = open external links in the last active tab replacing the current page
    Sorry, that's a lot of data, but hopefully it's reasonably clear.

  • Firefox lately always opens a new window

    Whenever I click a link in firefox, whether I option-click it or right-click it and choose "Open in new Tab." Firefox lately always opens a new window, not a tab. For the life of me, I cannot get it to open a page in a new tab.
    There was a time when I had one window open, and every time I would choose to create a new tab, it would create it in that window instead of the window I was currently in, but I have since closed that window, and now I cannot get a link to open in a new tab no matter what I do.
    I have tried both selecting and deselecting "Open new windows in a new tab instead" In Firefox preferences, restarting Firefox in "Safe" mode, etc. to no avail.
    How do I fix this?

    There are other settings in about:config that might be causing that effect.
    <pre>browser.link.open_newwindow
    3 = divert new window to a new tab (default) (checked*)
    2 = allow link to open a new window (unchecked*)
    1 = force new window into same tab
    * First checkbox in Options > Tabs (on Mac, Preferences > Tabs)
    browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction
    0 = open_newwindow preference honored for all new windows
    2 = open_newwindow preference honored for all new windows except script windows with features (default)
    1 = open_newwindow preference ignored completely (same effect as open_newwindow=2)
    browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external
    -1 = open_newwindow applies to external links (default)
    3 = open external links in a new tab
    2 = open external links in a new window
    1 = open external links in active tab </pre>

  • Safari and New Windows

    Lots of people write websites that use JavaScript to force new windows to open when you click an external link.
    Is it possible for Safari to recognise this and create a new tab instead?

    Hi,
    with Safari your only chance is to hold the cmd key while clicking on the link. In my favourite browser (OmniWeb) there's an option to do what you want. It's not free, but I still recommend to give it a try: http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omniweb/

  • With multiple tabs open, and selecting a new (blank) tab, RoboForm open new web page in far left tab, not the new (blank) one. How to correct this?

    Problem: Firefox Browser Tabs when using RoboForm
    When using Tabs in the Firefox browser (with multiple Tabs already open), I (1) click to open a new (blank) tab and then, (2) click on RoboForm to go to a new website. Instead of the new website opening in the newly opened (blank) tab it opens in the first (far left) tab. This only began happening when I installed Firefox 5.0 and RoboForm Desktop v7.3.2 at the same time.
    My system: HP Pavilion Media center, Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit, 8GB RAM, Firefox v5.0, Roboform Desktop v7.3.2

    Thanks a lot. The culprit turned out to be Webmail Notifier. Unfortunately, there seems to be some problems on their end that the developer has not yet responded to, but something about the extension is screwing up tab functionality.
    Thanks!

  • When I have 4 or 5 tabs open, selecting one of them often forces that tab to open as a new window and close in the original window

    FF 32.0.1. Moving between tabs that are already open, clicking on one which I have opened before forces it to close and open as a new window, which is a real pain. It seems to happen when I have 4 or 5 open tabs, rather than 2 or 3.
    This has only been happening in the last week, after a clean Windows reinstall.
    I've searched and found lots of people have problems with new windows opening when they just want a new tab, but this seems to be about opening fresh tabs rather than returning to one that's already open, so I can't find the same problem as I describe.

    This can happen if you drag a tab slightly down in the browser window while clicking.
    Firefox has a feature called tear-off tabs
    You can detach a tab from the current window and open it in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window.
    You can also do this via the right-click context menu of a tab: Move to New Window
    You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo that detaching.
