Window Behavior
12/20/07 at 08:42:22
 
With the old menus, you could minimize an open screen.  With the T7 menus, this no longer seems to work (or is not available).  Some of my users liked to be able to leave their screens open, but minimize them to the small bar (all sitting at the bottom of the Evo menu.  Is their a reason that the new menu's can't be minimized?

Minimize was causing a too many pops error, if you minimized a program then started a new one then reopened the minimized program and pressed exit.  We looked a fixing the issue but the only solution we cam up with is to disable it. you can drag the screen to the corner of you desktop and load other screens if you want then just drag it back later if you want to use it again. And no more too many pops.  If we find a way to fix this issue I will put back the minimize but until then it is usable as is.

Allen,
 
Understood.  I guess it is also difficult to associate the windows with the EVO main window.  With the old menu, if you minimized the EVO window, the others minimized also.  Now, if you minimize the EVO main window, the others stay there.

I have been playing with T7 programs and this problem of odd behavior is a real impediment to switching my people over to the new programs.
 
We often work with multiple windows open and the T7 windows act very strangely when in front of a T6 window. We need to click in various parts of the screen and then in the body of the T6 window to bring it to the front .
 
How is every one else coping with this? Closing all the windows for each item to be checked in inventory, than added to inventory if it doesn't exit, then entering a routing, then a sales order, then converting to a work order, then making adjustments in the work order, then printing Travelers, etc..., can really slow things down.

Our users are basically doing what Allen suggested (although not loving it) - the windows they want to leave open are dragged off to the side.

I understand that minimizing caused problems (too many pops) but we general leave the windows up in a cascaded fashion and click on the one we need to bring it forward and make it active. I can still do that but it requires clicking on different windows in a particular order to make it work. It is a pattern that is reproducible and I can navigate the windows, but very weird. I'm guessing that because it is a pattern, that it would be fixable.
