Question

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.

    Thanks! You get the impression that the guys who designed it never used it

    That was of some interest, but whenever I open a document it takes over the whole screen and covers my work space anyway. I need whatever document I open to do so in its own window that fits the page size exactly. Doesn't seem as if I can do that, so it's back to 8.0
