How to stop preview opening pictures in same window?

I know that when you open two or more pictures at the same time, preview opens them in the same window.
However, before today, when I double-clicked on one picture, it would open in preview. Then when I opened a second picture, it would open in a new preview window so I could arrange the pictures side-by-side. Now when I open a second picture, it brings it up as another side 'tab' in the window of the first picture.
I discovered that if I right-click on the tab picture, I can select "open in new window" but then if I open a third picture, it closes the picture I had up (the one I removed from the original window) and replaces it with the new picture.
Please help! Thanks.

I wish this worked for me, but it doesn't.
That preference is set clearly: "open each file in its own window", but Preview does not obey this preference.
This behavior started with Mavericks for me.
Very annoying since every time I open a file I have to go to thumbnails view, click right on the new file, and select "open in a new window".
Very annoying and time-wasting.

  • How to stop this multiple entry against same condition type in pricing

    My client is using manual condition type for the basic price "ZBPR". Now system allowing multiple entry against this condition type in the pricing screen during order creation i.e in the first line if we put ZBPR 00 , in the second line system allowing to put another value against same ZBPR say for example 2000 & doing all subsequent calculations on the basis of 3000 .which is not at all acceptable by my client .Please suggest how to stop this multiple entry against same condition type

    You have to make the condition type as Mandatory and not manual.
    If you are entering many condition records of the ZPR0 then the latest entry will be taken for further processing for subtotal rebate and total price.
    For all the other entered condition records will have yellow traffic signal which is not active.
    you can assign a routine with the help pf your abaper...
    In the Transaction VOFM  define a requirement such that
    you condition type takes value only one at the time of order entry.

  • How do you get a merged CHM to open in the same window as the master? (RH8)

    We have a problem where everytime you click on a topic from a merged CHM in the master TOC, it opens a new window exlusive to the chm where the topic resides.  We have more than one master chm and this is the only one that does it, it is also the only one that was created from RH8, although the others have been updated with RH8. We've compared the Window and SS Layout properties with a parent chm that doesn't behave this way and haven't been able to find any differences.  Is there something we can do to have all the topics whether merged or from the parent, open in the same window?

    I think somehow the last time I had this problem I stumbled on a solution and wasn't sure what fixed it, but the problem reared its head again, and it was back to the drawing board. Now I think we have a solution, but we don't know for sure what created the problem. Although we're pretty sure the problem has something to do with creating a new window when there is already and existing window.
    What we found. This problem couldn't be fixed in the SSLayout. We found that the Properties | Advanced | Window setting for individual topics in the TOC had been erased. This Window drop-down selection lets you choose a window other than <Default> if more than one window exists. If not changed by the user, it should stay at <Default>, but somehow the setting was blank on several topics, probably due to the creation of a new window, and maybe some other values being changed. This is probably a bug in RH8, but I don't know about other versions.
    How to fix it.
    First you have to isolate which merged .chm file (child) has the problem, I believe I did this by removing one child .chm at a time from the Parent project and then seeing if the parent .chm worked correctly after generation.
    Once you've found the offending .chm (there may be more than one), open the project and the TOC for the .chm that is a problem.
    Go to the TOC pod > Topic Page Properties (right-click on a Topic in the TOC and select Properties) > Advanced > Options panel and ensure that a value exists in the Window: field. If the field is empty, you have a problem.  Click the drop-down and select <Default>, even if your .chm window displays in drop-down.
    I don't believe there's an option to set a window as the default when you create it, so if there's more than one window, who knows what the <Default> option is drawing from, unless <Default> points to the window you have selected in the SSLayout, which I think is the case.
    Find all Topics that have this problem and fix them.  Note: you cannot fix this by going to topic Properties in the Topic List (or from r-click Properties in a topic), you have to do it in the TOC.
    Save all changes, generate the child .chm, and then replace the old child .chm with the new one.
    Open the parent .chm and check to see if all topics open in the parent window. Your Done

  • How to stop iphoto opening automatically.

    Hi everyone,
    I have forgotten how to stop iphoto opening up when I put my camera memory card in the reader.
    I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and I am now using Photoshop Elements 6 on my Macbook.
    Thanks in advance and a happy and healthy New Year from England,
    Alan

    Hi,
    Thanks for your quick answer but I managed to do it through Image Capture.
    You have to have the camera or reader connected then open Image Capture.
    I clicked on the device ( name of card reader ) and in the bottom left I could choose from a drop down menu where I wanted the card to open.
    Thanks again,
    Alan

  • How to stop mail from recovering the same message over and over again to the extent that it has wiped out all start up disk memory?

    How to stop mail from recovering the same message over and over again to the extent that it has wiped out all start up disk memory?

    You need to find and delete (move to the Trash) the offline mail cache (.offline cache.) It's a hidden folder (files and folders with a preceding dot are hidden) inside the Mail folder (inside IMAP) in your user library. Since it's hidden, in order to see it run the following command in Terminal in Applications>Utilities. Hit return/enter once you have pasted in the command.
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool true ; killall Finder
    To reverse this and hide all those hidden files and folders again
    defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles -bool false ; killall Finder
    Leave hidden files/folders enabled until you finish emptying the Trash so you know it's gone.

  • In Firefox 5, New Windows open in the same window even though the options are set to open in a new window.

    I have the options set to open new windows in a new tab. However, they do not.
    For example, as I click on the various options for support on Firefox.com, each opens in the same window. Similarly for Yahoo. If I bring up the news page and click on various links, they all open in the same window. How do you get them to open in new windows?

    Pure speculation, but maybe that Identity Finder program is deleting your browsing history which is how Firefox restores tabs and windows from the previous session. Check with technical support for that program or look at the manual.

  • Open link in same window

    Hi there,
    Does anyone know how to make the URL open in the same window. I am using flash CS3, Is there anyone who can edit the script below to allow this. The instance name is Button6
    var getnextpage5:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("http://www.yokubou.co.uk/digitalart.html");
    Button6.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,b5Click) ;
    function b5Click(event:MouseEvent):void{
    navigateToURL(getnextpage5);
    Thanks
    JR

    It should open in the same window by default, but if you want to force it, you pass "_self" to the navigateToUrl function:
    var getnextpage5:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("http://www.yokubou.co.uk/digitalart.html");
    Button6.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,b5Click) ;
    function b5Click(event:MouseEvent):void{
         navigateToURL(getnextpage5,"_self");

  • The link open in the same window - Label based menu

    Hi All,
    I'm using Xcelsius 2008.  I add a Selector Component "Selector complonenet > Label based menu". I setup 6 Lable and each one link to a URL. When clicking the label on the generated SWF report, the link opened in a new window.
    So i'd like to know if the link can open in the same window (not pop-up a window and open in it)?I tried to setup it in properties, but it seems there is no way to do this.
    Could I get your guide how to do that? Thank you so much.

    Hello
    I would like to know one thing before answring the question how did you link with an url with the label based menu.
    Did you used the opendocument syntax or what did you used.
    Another method is why donf you use the URL button and map according to your requirement. place the url button on the menu item and change the properties to tranperancy to 0%.
    Thanks

    Right, thank you. I do have it set to "_self". But it's still opening in a new window.
    I need to get the HTML file to open in the same window.
    You know, I may just need more experimenting here, because the flash file isn't in its HTML header template yet. Things may change once I have that done.
    Here's the code I have on the URL.
    home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, bClick);
    var getHome:URLRequest = new URLRequest("index.html");
    function bClick(event:MouseEvent):void {
        navigateToURL(getHome, '_self');
