MarcoKanto Posted November 27, 2020 Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) Hi - can someone tell me how to remove the application frame, so open documents float in their own windows. Thanks! Edited November 27, 2020 by MarcoKanto Quote

Junkbox Posted November 27, 2020 Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) WINDOWS If I understand you correctly, you just need to drag the tab of the document out of the application frame as you would with say chrome or firefox. Giving you what's in P1.jpg You can even dock other documents inside the new floater for tabbed floaters (P2.jpg). Pretty Nifty! -mk Edited November 27, 2020 by Junkbox WinVer Quote

Junkbox Posted November 27, 2020 Posted November 27, 2020 OIC, I read your sig not his by mistake and saw Windows. Certainly it is possible? Perhaps someone can post the MAC way. -mk Quote

Old Bruce Posted November 27, 2020 Posted November 27, 2020 It gets weird if you try. No crash but things are hard to see with a blue overlay and the windows being translucent. You can have separate windows or them all in one frame but you cannot have most of them in one frame.

Tony Bosley Posted September 25, 2021 Posted September 25, 2021 It's easy. I just figured it out. You just go under the menu heading "Window" and choose "Separated Mode". That's it! This is their way of saying "Hide Application Frame". Ta da! Quote
culturalproduct Posted July 19, 2023 Posted July 19, 2023 "You just go under the menu heading "Window" and choose "Separated Mode"." Option not in that location in V2. So far cant see where it was moved to. Hard to believe it would be removed. Quote

culturalproduct Posted July 19, 2023 Posted July 19, 2023 OK so that's a bizarre thing for them to do. I installed V2 and I'm looking at a software interface from the late 1990s. On Windows. 95. Quote
dtmp2 Posted July 19, 2023 Posted July 19, 2023 huh? removed in V2! It appears you can still drag the windows out of the frame. Quote
