Managing Multiple Screens The content of the Main Panel is referred to as a window. Just as you can open several documents in your word processor, you can open several windows in this application. To see the list of windows you have open, click the Window menu. In the Browser View setting, you can see only one active window at a time. You cannot tile or minimize these windows unless you select Multiple Document Interface (MDI) View (the default in OpenManage Network Manager) from the View -> Launcher menu. Figure 1:2.

Quick Start
Managing Multiple Screens
The content of the Main Panel is referred to as a window. Just as you can open several documents in
your word processor, you can open several windows in this application. To see the list of windows you
have open, click the
Window
menu.
In the
Browser View
setting, you can see only one active window at a time. You cannot tile or
minimize these windows unless you select Multiple Document Interface (MDI) View (the default in
OpenManage Network Manager
) from the View -> Launcher menu.
Figure 1:2.
Window Menu
If you right-click a device, for example, and select
Open
, the editor screen that appears does not close
the screen where you selected the device. Both remain open. You can navigate between screens by
selecting them in the Window menu, or with the browser buttons.
Figure 1:3.
Browser Buttons and
Select Layout / Select Content
The right and left arrows just left of the
Select Layout
pick list navigate backward and forward

Close
button to the right of the browser
buttons and layout selectors.
NOTE:
If you open more than 20 windows, the
Recommended Open Windows
Exceeded

for this software. While you can still open more windows, doing so
may slow performance.
