How to stop creating tabs from newly open documents PSE8 Mac?

I use PSE8 for Mac for scrapbooking.   Sometimes I open all at once a lot of images from Bridge into my workspace so I can manipulate them on a new page.  However, they open as a big tabbed mass onto the workspace.  It is driving me crazy.   Sometimes I can pull them apart and sometimes I can't.  I want them to open as a bunch of floating windows, some of which I will minimize and others I will work with right away.  I want them all to show up in the project bin.  If I go to window -> images -> float all in windows, I've learned that I can separate them.  is there some box to check somewhere so that they don't open as tabs in the first place?
thank you for your help.
Hanna

Hi,
Instead of reseting your preferences every time you face this, you canjust go to Edit > preferences> select the option : Allow Floating documents in Full edit mode.  With this option selected, you will have all your photos opened as floating windows.
Cheers ,

  • How to stop new tabs from opening during download of PDFs to be opened with external application

    I am a teacher using Edmodo for all student assignment submissions. Students use Preview to annotate PDFs and turn in the annotated PDFs to be graded. Each file I save prompts a new blank tab to be opened. This is frustrating since I download 50-60 files per day and have to go back and close each new blank tab. Please advise how to correct this issue so that the files can be downloaded without a new tab opening.

    Hi kellym210-
    You can manage your preferences for file downloads so that this does not happen. Instructions for this are in this Support article:
    [[Managing file types]]
    I hope that helps!

  • How do I create forms from a scan document

    I work with scans and regular pdf docs which require text boxes to be placed and then text added. Some of the text is repetitive like Name and Address etc but some maybe unique like price and quantity. How do I create a form so all blank spaces or underlined spaces get a text box and is it possible to add a macro which will fill the text boxes with the repetitive stuff. Thanks

    You will need the Professional version of Acrobat because this version provides the Acrobat Forms Tool and LiveCycle Designer program either of which can create form fields. You choice of product will depend upon what you want to accomplish and how well either product will meet that need. Both products can connect to SQL data bases and both can import data from properly formatted files.
    You might want to OCR the scans and add tags to the elements of the OCRed document so you could use the "automatic field recognition" feature of version 8. Not perfect,but it could save work.

  • How can stop random tabs from opening in safari!

    I have a MacBook Pro 15" retina display2.4 GHz Intel Core i7 Processor and 8GB of space. I've been using safari 7.0.5. Almost every time I click on something in safari, a new tab opens. It's usually an advertisement or sign up page for a dating website. It's getting extremely annoying and I want to know how I can stop them from opening. I've already tried blocking pop up windows in preferences and it hasn't done anything. Please help!

    You may have installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.

    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.

  • How to stop new tabs from opening while using safari?

    When I am using safari random pages will open in new tabs and i am constantly having to close the tabs. How can I stop this?

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.

    Step 1
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.

    The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX."

If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.

  • How to stop Dreamweaver Tabs from moving after restart?

    Hello.
    I am a PHP developer, and I find that tabs in Dreamweaver 8
    are very useful. Right now I have about 30 files, mostly PHP, some
    HTML and CSS open in tabs.
    I love the ability to move the tabs around all the time, as I
    see fit.
    However, one of the wost things I find about Dreamweaver 8
    is, once you close it and start it next time, and tabs are all
    jumbled up in the order they were opened, rather than in the order
    they were left at.
    Is there any way to prevent this jumbling up of tabs?
    Thanks.

    Those tabs represent the documents you have open currently.
    As you open a
    new document, it gets a new tab. You cannot move them, nor
    can you preserve
    them from one session to the next, other than by opening the
    same documents
    again in the same order (you can do this automatically with
    PREFERENCES |
    General > Reopen Documents on startup.

  • How do I stop extra tabs from open on start up?

    How do I stop extra tabs from open on start up? When I save new tabs the next time I open I have the new saved tabs. On the next opening after that are the same 7 tabs I don't want and didn't save. edit

    Make sure that the pages aren't set as multiple home page, see
    * [[How to set the home page]] - Firefox supports multiple home pages separated by '|' symbols
    See also:

  • How to stop the Dialog from being dragged

    I was hoping that someone could tell me when calling a Dialog from Jframe, a how to stop the Dialog from being dragged
    while a dialog is showing.
    When it is visible I can still click and drag the Dialog
    I want to set it so you can not drag it until the dialog has be closed.

    If you don't have access to the parent frame, a "hack" that usually works:
    Frame frame = Frame.getFrames()[0];
    if (null != frame && frame instanceof JFrame){
    JFrame jf = (JFrame)frame;
    JDialog jd = new JDialog(jf, "title");
    ... code here ...
    As each JFrame (or Frame) is opened, its stored in the array of Frames that you can get. Same thing with Dialog.getDialogs(). Almost always, at least so far for me I've never had this problem, the [0] index is the main window opened, or the parent/top frame. I'd put the check in there to be safe and make sure its a JFrame and usually you'll only have the one JFrame.

  • How to stop the dock from showing all hidden images when hiding then showing applications

    How to stop the dock from showing all hidden images when hiding then showing applications

    It's not really something to snap a screen shot of. I believe it would need to be a video clip. For instance, when I am working on multiple images in Photoshop, I often need many images open at the same time, but I only have one image viewable and active. The hero image is active on screen while I hide the other images in the dock by hitting the yellow - button on the images. Then I "Hide" Photoshop to do something in the Finder. When I go back to Photoshop, every image that is hidden in the dock will pop open again in the active window, not just the image I was currently working on. I want these images to stay in the dock until I need them, no matter how many times I Hide the Show Photoshop.

  • How to stop PR creation from PM work order for a particular vendor?

    Hello Experts,
    We have following scenario for breakdown maintenance activities.
    When a machine breaks down, a breakdown order is created in SAP. The external manintenance services are planned in the order. When the order is released, a single PR (with multiple item numbers corresponding to number of services) is created by SAP. The PR has a release strategy. When PR is released, PO is created followed by the SES.
    The practice followed AS -IS for breakdown outside business hours:- If the breakdown happens outside business working hours, the person releasing the PRs is not available & hence PR can not be released resulting in no PO & no subsequent SES.
    In this case, the maintenance is completed by the external agency & the work order is TECO. The next day, TECO is reveresed, new PR is created, released, converted into PO, & then SES.
    TO-BE process:- Client expects that, for certain vendors identified, PR should not get created at all from the breakdown order. (The list of  vendors will be maintained seperately). For these vendors, a framework order will be created at the start of fiscal year & SES will be created as & when required agaainst the framework order.
    My concern is :- How to stop PR creation from PM work order for a particular vendor? OR delete the created PR?
    Highly appreciate your quick response.
    Thank you.

    Dear Amit
    I am giving a different dimension to your question check if it fulfills your requirement -
    As we know Vendor selection comes at a later stage only after your PR creation, approval & RFQ etc. & PR generation from maintaine. order is controllled through control key PM03.  While triggering PR from order you have to specify Material group, Purchase group and vendor. Try to control it through authorisation as all these are authorisation objects. The persons executing breakdown order shall no t be given this authoriations

    Hey Joaneaudette. Follow these methods and try it
    – Tap the + button at the top right of the Safari screen to add a new tab
    – On the new tab screen tap on the ‘Private’ button/word at bottom left
    – You’ll get a popup dialog that asks if you want to Close All or Keep All tabs.
    – Select ‘Close All’ then tap on Private again and you’ll be back to normal browsing mode with a clean slate and no tabs open.
    Hope it helps!
