Open a second window from the first one

Hi,
The problem of my application is loosing control when I open the second window, so I know that the problem is the run of the sub VI but I don't find an other possibility to open a second window from the first one knowing that the first sends its vales to the second one. In an other way I want to open two windows simutaneously.
NB: I attached a simple verssion of my application.
Can someone help me please.

Hi Basile,
why do you open a new thread again? Didn't the older one provide a solution?
Best regards,

I attempt to open a second window from the icon but it does not open then when firefox is closed it will not reopen because it is still running in processes but no window displayed until you kill the process and then restart firefox.

I attempted to open a new window from the Firefox icon but nothing happens. I then went on browsing and closed Firefox but was later unable to open it. I checked processes and it was already running but there was no window displayed. I am running Windows 7 Professional.
This is repeated any time I already have the browser open and wish to open a second instance.

I have some windows minimized. When I try to open up another window from the start menu, even the minimized windows open up.

When I first open up a window from the start menu, just one window opens up. But when others are at the bottom (minimized) and I go to open up a new window from the start menu, all the minimized windows open up, too.

That can a problem with the Ask.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)

Is there a way to open a new window from the "Go" menu in Mavericks?

Before Mavericks, I was able to go from the Finder to the top menu "Go" -> "Utilities", or Applications or Home… and a new window would open.
Now I have to manually open a new window to avoid loosing my existing window.

Is there a way to open a new window from the "Go" menu?
First, as others have already stated.....make sure the checkbox is deselected for "open folders in tabs instead of windows" in Finder Preferences.
If you're like me and don't like tabs very much, there is a way to make folders always open in windows with a simple click (I'm using Mavericks 10.9.5). Go to a root folder (for example, the Documents Folder), open it, and select View > Hide Toolbar, then all folders within that root folder will open in a new window.
As an alternative method, any folder can be opened in a new window by holding down either Command Key while clicking the folder. But sooner or later you will forget to hold down that key, and then clicking on a folder will open in a tab (which will automatically resize the window and cause much aggravation).
The Hide Toolbar trick will also work with any folder present on the Desktop. It will make all folders inside that folder open in new windows.
To make the Applications Folder open in a new window when opening it from the menu bar at the top of the screen, you will have to open the main hard drive folder and use the Hide Toolbar trick. This will cause all folders inside it to open in new windows.
Hope this helps.

My second and third user profiles don't open in a window like the first, they stay minimised.

I have just moved my profiles to a Windows 7 PC, from XP; everything works OK except this:
When I open the Firefox profile manager from either a short cut on the desktop or a link pinned to the Start bar, and select anything but the first profile in the list, it opens it minimised to the Start bar. I have to hover either over the desk top icon or the one on the Start bar to get it full screen.
To see if it was a profile problem, I added a brand new "Guest" account and that does exactly the same.
I an using Firefox version 23.0.1, and Windows 7, 64 bit, Home Premium edition.

Sorry, I obviously didn't make things too clear. I don't want to use use 2 profiles simultaneously.
My Profile Manager has 3 profiles in it. When I open the first one in the list it opens up OK into a full sized window. But when I open the 2nd or 3rd profile in the list it opens MINIMISED; I then have to click on it to use it.
Under XP the Profile Manager worked fine.

Playing a second swf when the first one's finished

I have 2 swf files (the FLA's too) and want one to play then
the second. - I'd add the second to the timeline of the first, but
the second is a complete site and contains many referenced
"gotoandplay" links which would all need changing. So....I really
just need a way for the second swf to play after the first one's
finished. I tried using the load external movie clip behaviour, but
couldn't make it work. Can I use the first swf as a preloader
without affecting the timeline on the main swf? I canspare a couple
of frames at the start of the second movie for that, but don't know
how to set it up - can anyone help?
I also want the custom cursor to remain only in the first
swf, and go back to default on the second.
main (second) movie:
http://mysticalbillyo.com
first movie:
http://mysticalbillyo.com/intro.swf

I think you may want to create a 'master' loading swf, rather
than loading the second movie into the first, and use the
MovieClipLoader class to call and load new movies into the master
container.
Set up a new swf, that is the same size as the others. you'll
set up a function on the first frame and then use that function to
load all subsequent content into the master document. You can also
use methods of the class to add things like preloaders and other
event handlers. so for instance, at the last frame of the intro
swf, you'd add a 'call' to the function in the master telling it to
load the next movie in the sequence. I'll add the call you will
need on the bottom of the code example below.
PS. ------------------------------------
I'm not one to solicit, however I have (awhile ago) developed
a Component that you may be interested in for your site, although
it has not been package and ready for distribution, it does
function - called 'glitterMouse', and produces a twinkling mouse
trail effect when you move the cursor, mush like the onRollOver
animation that you'd painstakingly made (ouch) except that it use
random twinkle generation at run-time, and has many property
settings, like color, quantity, gravity, and so on. It might be a
nice addition to your 'wand' cursor, and would not 'replace it' as
it's not a 'cursor' but an effect generator.
If you are interested, an example of it in action (although
you can't purcahse it from there ... yet) can be seen on my site
at: www.beechstudios.com goto the 'Flash' section, it's the first
one listed.
Just thought I'd throw that out there, sorry all, it just
fits :]
OK the code for you, add this to the first frame of the
'master' swf, then add the code at the bottom to the end of the
intro swf in the last frame.
EDIT: this is AS2 code, to use AS3 code do something more
like the methods as described above, yet I would still consider
placing all content within a 'master' loading doc, and replaceing
or removeing previously loaded children.

Pop-up allows first pop-up page and the second pop-up page (linked from the first one) but does not open the data in the second pop-up page.

I want to print my online bank statement.
Please see screen shots below.
The webpage has a link that says:
VIEW STATEMENT
Click the link and a pop-up opens that warns you about downloading using a public-access computer or sharing a computer with others.
If you want to continue click OKAY.
When you click this link another pop-up appears (a pop-up within a pop-up)
but it is blank.
When the process used to work, the statement would appear.
MacBook running OS X 10.6.8
When I tried it with Safari everything worked as it should so the problem is not with the bank.
I went back to Firefox (my preferred browser) and did the troubleshooting RESET.
Nothing changed.
In the Tools menu - Page Info - Permission - Open Pop-up Windows is set @ Default - Allow
In Preference - Content - Block pop-up windows is unchecked
or when it is checked the website is listed in the Allowed column.
It is the correct url because when I clicked the yellow options bar to Allow it, FireFox automatically chose it.
I also tried adding the extended url as it appears on the web page which has the first pop-up link.
Firefox would not accept it.

Screenshots:
# Part of bank's webpage with the link to the first pop-up
# The first pop-up page with link to the statement pop-up page.
# The second pop-up page - blank where there should be the statement. The page appears but the data doesn't.

How can I log into two differant accounts at the same time in two windows without the second window affecting the first.

I'm trying to log into two facebook accounts at the same time in differant windows. When ever I log into the second account in the second window it changes the login in the first window. When I hit home or any other link the first window account has been logged out and logged into the second window account. I tried installing a second copy of firefox in a differant folder that the first but it seems to use all the files of the first installation. If I can get 2 toatally seperated instalations that don't rely on the same history, cookies, cache, etc I belive that will solve my problem. Please help.

Nah, that won't work. Facebook has a feature that gets your IP Address, so as soon as you sign into one on the same computer, it changes the other login for safety purposes (say, someone was on a public library PC. They forgot to log out. Someone else logs in, and it automatically logs them out). You'll need 2 computers to do that.

Go Recent Folders opens in new window, not the current one

I noticed with Mavericks, when I use Finder>Go>Recent Folders, it opens a new window instead of changing the contents of the currently open window.
Is there a way to get it to work the way it used to?
Also, I thought you could open folders in new tabs automatically. I have to right click for that option.
In Finder Preferences, I have tried Open folders in tabs instead of new windows both turned on & off. Nothing changes.
thanks in advance

Surebrec,
'''Update:''' I found this, which you might want to try out before continuing reading: http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/how-stop-firefox-stealing-window-focus.htm
Basically that would mean the reverse for you.
If that didn't work:
Does this problem appear without you having many applications running at the same time and/or if you have pinned a lot of applications to your Taskbar in Wondows 7?
Some users have reported that this problem manifests itself if the row of icons in the Taskbar simply can't make room for any icons expanding (i.e. new windows in for instance Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer).
If so, you might want to take a look at: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems

Opening a dialog window from the JSX file

I can open a new window in a normal jsx script with
var dlgMain = new Window();
dlgMain.show();
But this code will give an EvalScript error when run inside a JSX file in an HTML5 extension. (What I actually need is to open a file selector window and get the full path of the file). How can I do this with an HTML5 extension?

Solved with the following code:
                    var inFolder = File.openDialog("Select File");
                    var idPlc = charIDToTypeID("Plc ");
                    var desc1 = new ActionDescriptor();
                    var idnull = charIDToTypeID("null");
                    desc1.putPath(idnull, new File(inFolder));
                    var idFTcs = charIDToTypeID("FTcs");
                    var idQCSt = charIDToTypeID("QCSt");
                    var idQcsa = charIDToTypeID("Qcsa");
                    desc1.putEnumerated(idFTcs, idQCSt, idQcsa);
                    var idOfst = charIDToTypeID("Ofst");
                    var desc2 = new ActionDescriptor();
                    var idHrzn = charIDToTypeID("Hrzn");
                    var idPxl = charIDToTypeID("#Pxl");
                    desc2.putUnitDouble(idHrzn, idPxl, 0.000000);
                    var idVrtc = charIDToTypeID("Vrtc");
                    var idPxl = charIDToTypeID("#Pxl");
                    desc2.putUnitDouble(idVrtc, idPxl, -0.000000);
                    var idOfst = charIDToTypeID("Ofst");
                    desc1.putObject(idOfst, idOfst, desc2);
                    executeAction(idPlc, desc1, DialogModes.NO);

How do I set up 2 different IPOD's on the same computer without having all the songs and games from the first one copy onto the second one?

- Disable autosyncing: go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and check the box that says "Prevent iPods ...syncing">
- Connect the iPod and go to the music, apps and other panes for the iPod and check the boxes that say only sync the checked items.

Open a second BPF from a the current BPF

Hi,
is there a way to open a second BPF from the one I am currently working in? My idea is to create a first BPF (e.g. called "Overview") that lists task groups such as Consolidation, HR Planning, Revenue Planning etc, where each task then links to another BPF that will open, e.g. clicking on Consolidation would open a BPF called "Consol" or clicking on HR Planning would open a BPF called "HR".
I do not want to use just one BPF where each of the above groups is a heading because then I would have to mark each as complete before I can move to the next which doesn't work since the is no real natural order to them.

Hi Arnold,
We dont have the feasibility to open another BPF from one.
I can give you one work around for this. Create Custom Menus. You cant maintain different custom menus as tabs in the single excel sheet. And you can navigate between them using the Action - "CHANGEMENU".
Hope this helps.
