Allow this Object to be Opened in a New Window
Use this option to control whether this object can be opened in a separate window.
If an application is not allowed to be opened in a separate window, the views or business objects it contains cannot be opened in a separate window.
If the entire Framework can be opened in a secondary window, implicitly the user can access secondary instances of any application, view or business object within it by specifically navigating to them. So, to restrict access to individual business objects you should make sure that the option is also controlled at the Framework level.
This option is only applicable if the Show the 'Windows' Menu in this Framework option is selected in the Framework. This option only applies to Windows.
The options are:
|
Never |
This object cannot be opened in another window by an end-user. |
|
Manually |
This object can be manually opened in another window by an end-user. They do this by using the Window -> Open in a New Window main or popup menu options. |
|
Automatically |
This object should be opened in a new window automatically when it is selected in the navigation pane. In effect this means that this object will always operate in a separate window to the one it is launched from. |
|
Automatically or Manually |
This object should be opened in a new window automatically when it is selected in the navigation pane, and it can be manually opened by an end-user. |
Note that none of these options have any impact on the ability of developers to programmatically open new windows by using the avShowWindow method (see Programmatically Creating and Managing Windows).
