Working with Applications and Screens

Publication 2711-6.0

Multiple screens can be open in the workspace. You might want to
copy or move objects from one screen to another or you might need
to access information on another screen.

Each screen opened overlaps the previous screen and PanelBuilder
adds the screen name to the Windows menu. The last opened screen
becomes the active screen. A check mark (✓) appears next to the
active screen. The title bar of the active screen is also highlighted.

To open multiple screens in an application:

1. Click the first screen you want to select in the application file

window, then drag the pointer to the last screen.

To cancel the selection, click any screen in the list.

Or click the first screen, press and hold down the

SHIFT

key, and

click the last screen you want to select.

To cancel the selection, release the

SHIFT

key and click on any

screen.

2. Click the Open Screen tool on the tool bar.

Or Choose Open from the Screen menu.

The selected screens open.

Important:

Too many open screens may result in a Windows
resource or low memory message, and slow screen
updates. Close the application file and any open
Windows programs. Open the screens one at a time.
