4. Modify the window parameters, then press OK. The Open Window dialog box reappears.
5. If you wish to open the window you just created, click on the window and click Open. Otherwise, click Exit to
return to the main screen of EasyBuilder.

Windows Object List and select New. The Window Settings dialog opens.
Window Settings
Let’s look more closely at the parameters you can change when creating a new window.
When a window is initially created, the window settings can be edited to make changes; however, once a window
has been created, the window number cannot be changed. To change the window settings, highlight the desired
window in the Open Window dialog and click on the Settings... button.
Alternately, right-click on the desired window in the Windows Object List and select Settings.
Assigning a Window Name
The Name is a description box used to help you identify what the window is used for without having to actually open
the window and look at the contents. Up to 50 characters can be entered into this field with space characters
allowed.
Assigning the Window Number
Although 1999 windows are available on the Silver Series, two are specifically reserved for the Common Window and
the Fast Selection window and several are reserved for internal use. Therefore, you can assign #10-1999 to any
window you create. When you initially create a window, EasyBuilder will automatically assign the lowest available
number to the window. However, you can assign any number within the allowed range. In this manner, you can group
windows together that may share some common traits.
