Opening several windows of a same file

Hi,
I'm trying to open several windows of a same Numbers file, to display two sheets at the same time. This is feasible with Excel, but I cannot manage to find how to do it in Numbers. Can anyone help me?
Thank you i

Open several PDFs in the same Reader window using tabs for each document

How do I open several PDFs in the same Reader window using tabs for each document? I'm using Reader 11.0.03 and Windows 7.

That would be a nice feature! Suggest it at https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform - hopefully it will make it into Reader XII.

Opening duplicate copies of the same File in CS4

Hi
I have recently upgraded some of my customers from CS3 to CS4 and I have noticed that when I open a document that was last opened in CS3 i can open the file more than once and they get listed as tabs. If i make changes to the the first open document and save it, the changes do not effect the other open copies of the file.
however once i have saved the file in CS4, if i try and open the document again it simple brings up the already open file in Indesign.
Is their any way I can make this the default behaviour for all documents, as a number of my clients have complained that they have accidentally opened the file more than once and they save the document and close it down and when they close the duplicate copies down and click save it overwrites all the work previously done.
Thanks
Nick.

I'm not sure what you want to change the default behavior to, but I'm pretty sure there's no way to change it. This is no different than the way previous versions opened old-version files, except that CS4 shows you the multiple, same-named files as tabs instead of as separate windows. If you want ID to behave exactly as it did in previous versions, you can turn off the tabs in preferences (Edit > Preferences > Interface > Open documents as tabs).
Why do you want to open multiple copies of the same file? If you're converting from CS3 to CS4, why not just open the CS3 file and Save As to a new name?
Keep in mind that CS4 H&Js slightly differently than CS3. You can expect to see some minor text re-wrap going from CS3 to CS4 (but not until you start editing a story). It's always a good idea to finish CS3 jobs in CS3, start new jobs in CS4.

Flash Player opens several windows.

Flash Player opens several windows and does not work. Uninstalled yesterday downloaded new rebooted and reinstalled. Same thing. Windows 7 Pro, Firefox 17.0.1 Usually leaves a blank window upper left on my desktop.

Try resetting your Firefox profile (if you have't already). Instructions to do this are partway down in this FAQ.

Everytime I start my iMac it opens several windows. I don´t know what to do to prevent this.

Everytime I start my iMac it opens several windows: Word, Excel, etc. I don´t know how to prevent this. I have to spend several minutes everytime closing 5 or 6 windows. I close everything before I sign out so I don´t know what to do. Please help.

In addition, OS X Lion includes a function referred to as Resume, where it will automatically re-open any app left running when the machine was shut down or restarted.
To prevent that from happening, you can uncheck the item in the shutdown or restart splash screen which refers to re-opening running apps. Unfortunately, this has to be done every time.
The alternative is to get in the habit of quitting all apps before shutting down or restarting.
Note that in the user's guide Apple suggests not shutting the machine down unless it will be unused for more than a few days. Not sure how many 'few' is in that context, but since I use mine every day I never shut it down (unless there's an electrcal storm in the area).

Open new window in the same form

Hi
I created a form with 6 records displayed. I have a check box for each record. I would like to select a record and make the check box checked. Once I check a checkbox I would like to automatically open a new window in the same form with further details of the checked record. Could you please help me how I could work on this.

Dear you have to create relation between the blocks then you can achieve this like:
1) Create two canvases in your form (canvas1 and canvas2).
2) Create a window in your form with name Window2 now you have two windows (Window1 and Window2).
3) now set the property 'Primary Canvas' of each window (Window1 = Canvas1, window2 = Canvas2)
4) Now create database block of you main table with (CAT, NAME, DEPT) fields and select the Canvas1 in the layout wizard.
5) Create another database block with same table but this time select only 3 fields (CAT,SAL, DATE) and at the time of creation mention relation between blocks in the Data block wizard (block1.cat = block2.cat) and select the Canvas2 in the layout wizard.
6) Now create check box field name MASTER_CHBOX in first block and set Database Item property no of this check box item and set the Value When Checked property to Y and N for Value When unChecked.
7) Create a trigger on CheckBox Item and paste below code in it.
if :MASTER_CHBOX = 'Y' then
show_window('WINDOW2');
go_item('SAL');
end if;

Open new window in the same Window

Im developing a project in JavaFX where I wish to open the new window in the same window
Here is my code :
Stage st=(Stage)((Node)t.getSource()).getScene().getWindow();
I tried this but its giving an exception

It is possible to specifiy a named window instead of _blank.
So you could use the following instead:
web.show_document('html/hello.htm','my_window');
where my_window can be anything you want to call that browser window.
However, I have discovered that if you put this in a button trigger, the second time you press the button (if the window is still open) it will not take focus - ie. it remains in the background.
You can get around this by closing the window if it is already open:
web.show_document('html/close.htm','my_window');
web.show_document('html/hello.htm','my_window');
The close.htm needs to contain some javascript to close the window:
<html>
<body onload="closeit()">
<script>
function closeit()
window.opener = top;
window.close();
</script>
</body>
</html>
Apparently XP SP2 is a little stricter with javascript and may not allow this. Also, not sure if this works in all browsers, I only tried IE6.

Can you open multiple windows of the same Keynote presentation?

Like you can in PPT, where you can go Window > New Window, and see more than one slide at once of the same presentation in the large view. If there is any way to view more than one slide at time, in the large view, please let me know.
I know about Light Table, and that's useful but I really want to be able to open multiple instances of the same presentation like I could in ppt.

Thanks, I will. It seems like such an obvious thing, yet I could not find anyone referencing it anywhere. I thought I was the only one who used ppt (or now keynote) that way. Otherwise it is awesome, so much better than PPT.

How to create a button to get File Open popup window and select a file

Hi,
I have an applet that contains Browse button. When user clicks on that, a File Open popup window should be displayed to enable user to select the input file. This file path should be given back as parameter.
How to do this? I have tried using LoadFileData but not able to get the desired result.
Any pointers would be helpful.
Thanks,
Lalitha Dandibotla

Do you need only the path or also the file back into Siebel?
If you need both, the have a look at any attachment applet, that will give you a good start.
Are you using Siebel in High Interactivity (HI) Mode or Standard Interactivity (SI) Mode?
If you are in SI Mode have a look at the html type
<input type="file">

How do I - with Swiss German Keyboard Layout - switch between several windows of the same application, what is the shortcut

can anyone pls help me with this. plus anbody explain me how this very basic feature that millions of people are using billions of times every day can be that hard to find on a mac?? there is hundreds of posts about this, but nothing for the swiss german keyboard. and apple: can you please make this just that simple and great as all the rest. thank you so much.

Hi Kappy,
well what you are saying is obvious to me. This is not the point for me and not what I wanted to know. But I think you answered my question anyway: OS X is unable to switch between windows of the same application as I mentioned in my example.
WHY NOT???
Every other OS is able to differentiate between windows and not just applications.
Another example: The Mail application and an Email editor window. When you are writing an Email and you want to switch to the main window of the Mail application to read something you must again use the mouse!
I mean Apple seems to be "somehow" using FreeBSD in the background and even in FreeBSD's window manager it is possible to switch between windows of the same application.
Well, in the Apple world it is always the pour user who is not intelligent enough to understand Apple's philosophy ;-(
To me this is not modern, it is simply a weakness of the OS.

Open application windows in the same place consistently

Hello,
I am hoping to find out if anyone knows of a good way to convince application windows to open in the same location on the screen every time, consistently. This is, clearly, a minor problem, but perhaps you know how to do it. For example, I tend to use Safari with the window open over the entire screen, but every time I open a new window it locates itself with a couple mm between left side of the screen and left side of the Safari window, and the right side of the Safari window (the scroll bar) is partially off the screen (because the window is shifted). So every time I open a new Safari window I have to click the top bar and drag it a little bit to place it where I want it. Is there a way to "teach" Safari where I want it to open so that it will open in the same place every time? Maybe the problem is that I have a hidden dock on the left side of the screen and Safari does not want to come too close to the dock?
(I also have the same issue with Mail, because though I use that program with the application window only open over part of the total screen area it always opens in the same place on the screen which is always slightly off from where I want it to be)
Any suggestions? Thanks!!
PS I apologize if this has been posted before; I tried several searches but the only results that came up were not at all related to my actual question.

I don’t think there is a way to teach Safari not to shift the window when a new one is created. And I don’t think it is related to the position of the Dock.
I leave a few cm of space on the right side of the Safari window and have the screen filled from top to bottom with the Safari window. Then when I make a new window, it opens shifted a little to the right of the previous window, but it doesn’t put the scroll bar off the screen and because the screen is filled from top to bottom, it doesn’t shift down, just right next to the previous window.
You might try using tabs. When you click a link that you want in a new window, hold the Command key down. It will open in a new tab in the same window and you can change between the window tabs by clicking on it on the top of the window. The X on the tab will close the tab.

How to see several windows at the same time?

I know this is too basic.
I have 1 window open.
The tab shows 3 separate items each of which I can click on and see.
But I don't want to see each window 1 at a time.
I want to see all 3 items at one time.
I know how to tile once I see all 3 windows.
But how do I get to see all 3 at the same time?

Peter Spier wrote:
Tabs display one doc at a time. Any viewing method the shows multiple docs uses un-tabbed windows. That button I showed you above is one easy way to change from the tabs to a convenient arrangement of windows.
So if you have multiple tabs, you can use the views button to arrange them so they are all visible at the same time.
The Arrange Windows widget in the tool bar is sometimes confusing.
Selecting any open window makes that the topmost active window; if it's near maximum size, you can't see the others, so this is also confusing.
How about Window > Arrange > Float All in Windows to separate multiple tabbed open files, followed by Window > Arrange > Tile (or Cascade)?

Need to Open Two Windows at the same time

Hi All ,
I have a requirement wherein I am opening a new page when the user presses a link . The information displayed to the user in the new page is Read-Only.To display the reqd info on the new page I pass some parameters encoded in the page call URL.
Besides , displaying the info in the new page , it is imperative that i allow the user to continue performing some transactions in the current page (calling page).
However , i am not able to achieve the same . If I use 'retainAM=Y' in the URL then i pass the Session Control from the calling page to the called page . So that option is out.
Can u suggest something wherein i am able to pop-up a new page to the user , but still not loose the session control from the current page.
It is necessary that the user has both windows open to perform the transactions.
Thanks

I need to clarify some things . I cannot create an OA Function as you have earlier advised . Lets say its a constraint i have. My scenario is that i have to prepare a HyperLink Declaratively . In that i am currently giving _Blank as the target .
Now i want to open the new page and still allow the user to perform some transactions in the original page while the new page is still open . How should i go abt maintaining my AM from original page.
Following are the scenarios i have already tried out.
1) I have opened the the new page and released my application module in that page . This didnt work .
2) I have tried doing retainAM=N . This also does not work.
3) Using PopUp is not an option since i cant create OAFunction .
Are their any other way . When i open a new window thru a current window , my AM gets transferred to the new window . Hence i am not able to perform any transactions on that the original page . How can u release the AM On click of a link ?
Pls Suggest
Thanks
