Stop document windows snapping to main window

This new interface is driving me nuts. I am now wasting
so many keystrokes resetting my display I am seriously considering going back to my previous version.
Every time I open a document it snaps to the window in multipage mode - i wont it to open in single page only mode (no, I hate tabs - it's more trouble than it's worth when you cut and paste a lot). Does anybody know how to make it do this?
PS The same goes for these darn pods - I want them to open up in the same place every time!
Thanks!

Hi Phil and welcome to the FM forums. I feel your pain as the FM9 interface is very different. I upgraded from version 6 and found RJ Jacquez's webinar on the FM9 interface very useful. His blog is also full of useful resources. Check it out. The webinar is also on his blog. Click here.

  • Open Browser Window Action changes main window also

    I am using the Open Browser Window action on an <a> tag (href) and not only does it open a new browser window, it also changes the content of my main window to the linked page. I can't figure out how to make it stop doing this! Any help? (fyi - I am an HTML rookie, so be gentle)
    Thanks!

    Without seeing the code it's more difficult to explain.  But basically if you look at the code just change the href to "#" instead of the linked page.  That should solve the issue.

  • How to pop new window in running main window

    i have to popup a sub windopw in main window....and i need to plot common data to be printed on front panal...
    i am usind daq ...can i share same daq in main and sub window...hao??or can i share some calculated value in main and sub window of labview.,,pleasehelp me fast

    As KoenR has said - you can use SubVIs and set them to 'Show front panel when called' which will make them show as new windows in your application.
    As for sharing the data, you could use something like a notifier (under synchronisation) for broadcasting the data to the SubVI. If you create the notifier in your main application, with a send notification VI and then pass the reference to the notifier into the SubVI when you call it which has a 'wait on notification' VI it will then receive the data form the main loop. 
    If you look in the LabVIEW examples under 'notifiers' you will find 'Pass Data with Notifiers' which demonstrates how to use notifiers to pass data to SubVIs.

  • Popup a new window in running main window

    i am running main window(block diagram) on which i am sampling 4 analog input signaland showing on 4 graphs in front panel.i have to program such tha whenever any of my signal goes low below some threshold...i have to push a button related to only that particular signal and popup new front panel showing only that particular graph and whwnever push particular button it goes back to main front panel...
    thanks....
             regards...sachin

    Not that hard.  What have you tried so far?
    You just need to call a VI that has the Show Front Panel When Called property set and make sure the Close Afterward If Originally Closed subproperty is also set.  These are in VI Properties|Windows Appearance.

  • SAP Script: Include text in MAIN window prints outside MAIN window margins

    Hi,
    We're facing a peculiar issue. We call a text element in the MAIN window of an SAP Script form using FM WRITE_FORM.
    The element has 2 includes.
    The problem is that when the content of any of the 2 includes is large enough, the include text prints overflows outside the MAIN window margins on the first page and into the area of the footer window of the same page. It does not automatically flow to the next page MAIN window.
    We have checked that the MAIN window and FOOTER window margins do not overlap. Infact they are quite far from each other.
    We have tried stuff like using a forced PROTECT, change the para format etc, but nothing solves the problem.
    Does anyone have any idea?

    You do not need to use the subroutine READ_ORDER_TEXT to get another text name because you already have it: TMP_TXNAM2 .
    Pass this value back to your SAPscript, and it is okay.
    Or you can even check the text object is empty or not, if no text is found, print 2 empty lines:
    still use your subroutine to read the text, if no line is found, set TMP_TXNAM2  to empty, otherwise, no change,
    In SAPscript, check the value is empty or not, then print 2 empty line or the text object...

    hi cg soft.
    welcome to our little, quiet sea-side developers community. (where people are nice and the pharmacies are open late)
    i can't understand whether the problem you're describing is in regards to a custom made window (pop up), a palette plug-in, or the ECW.
    this is a long thread that deals with a lot of different issues, but also goes into details on creating os level windows:

  • Possible to print Int.Tab data in a window other than MAIN window in Script

    Hi,
      Can we print a internal table data in a window which is a VARIABLE Window in SAP Script? my requirement is not to print in MAIN Window.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Jakeer.

    Hi,
    You can do that.But main window is must.
    Create a text element and please check it maynot overflow if so data will be truncated.
    For not printing main window :
    Do one thing set the main window margint to the botom of the form.
    Then create a text element in main element

  • New message windows always behind main window

    If I click to create a new message, it always appears behind the main window. At first I though it wasn't doing anything at all - but when I looked in the Window menu I realised that the windows were at the back, hidden. Any way to fix this?

    Geoff,
    I also have been frustrated by the problem of a mail link opening beneath an already open safari web page. I also have spaces setup with safari and mail to open in different windows. If I set them to appear in the same space the problem is fixed although I expect this is a bug. Thanks for he tip about spaces,
    Jon.

  • Portal session still exist in child window after logout main window

    Hello community,
    here's a short summary about our business scenario:
    We use performance management (SAP HCM) within our SAP ERP 6.0 and SAP NW Portal 7.0.
    With the application performance management we use some bsp- and webdynpro-iviews from the business package MSS.
    Some of these applications opens a second portal window (child windows) for doing the work.
    If the user logoff only the main portal windows with the "logout"-link and also close this window (e.g. he forgot to close the child windows) the user have the possibility to make changes (e.g. in the opened performance management document) in the child window.
    This behavior isn't allowed according our company principles. If the user logout on any portal window (also at creating of new portal sessions with STRG+N) all the sessions of the user should be terminated.
    Which possibilites do I have to solve this problem?
    Thanks for your help!
    Kind regards,
    Bernd

    Hello,
    yes, I found a solution.
    In the iView-parameter you can put in the following value:
    PortalSessionID = <ClientWindowID>
    This value ensures that in the opend window no changes are possible.
    In the opend child window there is now a pop up to log on to the ERP-system.
    Kind regards,
    Bernd

  • Error in Smartforms a page without a main window

    Dear Friends
    I have suffred one problam in Smartforms, whe we create new page then system gives error
    "A page without a main window cannot point to itself as next page".
    Please provide solution.
    Regards
    Ajit Sharma

    Hello Ajit,
    In Smart Form Main window is optional but check if this satisfies in your case ....
    Main Window
    In a main window you display text and data, which can cover several pages (flow text). As soon
    as a main window is completely filled with text and data, the system continues displaying the text
    in the main window of the next page. It automatically triggers the page break.
    You can define only one window in a form as main window.
    The main window must have the same width on each page, but can differ in height.
    A page without main window must not call itself as next page, since this would trigger
    an endless loop. In such a case, the system automatically terminates after three
    pages.
    It means if you have Next page you need to use a Main window in your smart form.

    Kittu

  • Problem with line items print in Script MAIN window.

    Dear Friends,
    I am facing a problem with display the line items in main window.
    Here i have created my form with 2 pages,
    in first page i have created header window(my header information is full length of page), in second page i have created 2 windows, one for MAIN window and second for FOOTER window,
    i am having the Footer information about to off the page.
    and in my main window total 3 line items are coming, if i am having 3 line items then it is displaying properly (first 3 line items then immediately footer information on same page) but if am having more then 3 line items say four, then in my second page first it is printing 3 line items then it is switching into another page. After that footer is coming but. in previous page after printing 3 line items the remaining page is empty..
    my client want me to remove that place also. he wants to display continue..
    i think so u people r understand what is my problem...pls advice me what i want to do to solve this problem.
    Thanks
    Sridhar.

    Hi Sridher,
    If you want to display the footer information only on the last page why dont you use a table to display your details and place the footer details in the table footer instead of a seperate footer window.

  • In Smartform How to display footer & some secndry window after Main window?

    Hi,
    My requirement in Smartform is to display footer and and secondary window  after the Main window.
    also if item goes to 2nd & 3rd Page then also after main window footer and some secondary window should appear.
    Do i have to maintain footer and sec. window in Main Window itself
    Plz tell me in detail.
    Regards
    Vivek

    Hi Vivek,
    In smartform, specific legth is allocated to each window, that you create for a page.
    So, if you want to display secondary window on each page, create 1 secondary window with the required length and it will be displayed on each page.
    And you have written that you want to display the footer of main window also on all pages. It won't happen when you display your footer in main window. you will have to create a new window for your footer as well. Main window footer will always get displayed at the end of the main window.
    e.g. If your main window flows on second page, main window footer will be displayed on second page only.
    I hope this helps.
    Thanks,
    Archana

  • LR 5: Photo edits not showing in main window of Develop module

    I just now installed LR5, converting my LR3 catalog to LR5 catalog. Everything seemed to go fine. I picked one photo and converted to the 2012 process. The new sliders appeared.
    The problem: Any changes I make are seen only in the Navigator window, not the main window. I figured there had to be a simple fix, but I've scoured the web and can find no one having similar problems. Any ideas?

    Ok, I feel a wee bit sheepish. I closed LR and reopened. No more problem. I converted another photo and could see the edits in the main window--without restarting LR.
