LectureNotes

Editing Result Windows Once a result window has been defined, you are free to edit any of the characteristics of the window. You click Edit Selected Definition or Edit > Result Window and the system will open the Result Window Definition dialog box. Here you can change any of the settings used to originally create the window. Copying Result Windows Result windows can be copied using Copy or Edit > Copy. When you copy a result window, the system again displays the Result Window Definition dialog box with all of the same settings as the original, with the exception of the window name. The new name will default to Window1, which you can change. You can keep all of the same settings as the original window definition, or you can edit any of the available options and values. To display the new window, just click OK and Show in the Result Window Definition dialog box, which will show the copy along with any other result windows currently open. Alternatively, you can use Show Definitions from the main toolbar, and select the window or windows you want to display. Deleting Result Windows You can use Delete Selected Definition or Edit > Delete to remove any result windows from the current definition. Note that this function deletes the active window, so be certain to select in the appropriate window before deleting. Window Menu Options You can use the window menu to do the following:

Full Screen: Causes the currently selected result window to occupy the entire results window. You select this from the window menu to go back to the original display. Swap: Enables you to change the placement of one results window with another. For instance, if you had 4 results windows showing, you could make the 2nd window change places with the 4th window. Reorder: Enables you to change which results window is first, second, third, and so on. It is only available for a results session where you have displayed 3 or more results windows.
