Window Menu
The Window menu contains commands that let you organize individual application and document windows within the GUI. You can cascade or tile open document windows, and you can arrange entry helper and output windows as well as hide them.
Cascade, Tile Horizontally/Vertically
The Cascade command arranges document windows so that they are staggered in a sequence from back to forward.
The Tile Horizontally and Tile Vertically arranges the windows of open and non-minimized documents so that they are re-sized as tiles that are all visible within the application window.
Project Window, Info Window, Entry Helpers, Output Windows
These commands switch the display of, respectively, the Project Window, Info Window, Entry Helpers, and Output Windows on or off.
Each of these windows is a dockable window. Dragging on the window's title bar detaches it from its current position and makes it a floating window. Click right on the title bar, to allow docking or hide the window.
Project and Entry Helpers
This command toggles on and off the display of the Project Window and the Entry Helpers together. It saves you the trouble of switching on/off the display of these windows individually.
All On/Off
This command lets you switch all dockable windows (listed below) on or off.
This is useful if you want to hide all non-document windows quickly, to get the maximum viewing area for the document/s you are working on.
Currently open window list
All currently open document windows are listed at the bottom of the Window menu by document name, with the active window being checked. To make another window active, click the name of the window you wish to make active. This list shows all currently open windows, and lets you quickly switch between them. You can also use CTRL+Tab or CTRL+F6 keyboard shortcuts to cycle through the open windows.
Windows dialog
At the very bottom of the list of open windows is an entry for the Windows dialog. Clicking this entry opens the Windows dialog, which displays a list of all open windows by filename and provides button commands that can be applied to the selected window/s. (A window is selected by clicking on its filename. Use the Ctrl key or Shift key to select multiple files.)
The following button commands are available:
•Activate: Makes the selected file the active file and exits the dialog.
•OK: Exits the dialog.
•Save: Saves the selected file/s.
•Close Window(s): Closes the selected file/s.
•Cascade, Tile Horizontally, Tile Vertically: Arranges the selected windows according to the command selected. These commands will be disabled if only one file is selected.
•Minimize: Minimizes the window/s of the selected file/s.
