Work With Windows, Tabs, and Panes

HPDM provides all of the conventional user-interface controls present in other Windows
applications. HPDM windows can be resized by dragging the window corner or border. If a
border is dragged, the window size changes only on the side of the border. If a corner is dragged,
the two adjoining sides to the corner change size at the same time. When a window is resized,
graphical objects in a window get resized, if necessary. When a window is resized, vertical and
horizontal scroll bars in a window get resized, if necessary. If a window has a minimum size, it
cannot be resized smaller than the minimum size.

HPDM also provides some special features for displaying information. You can:

Manage multiple open windows from one dialog box (see

“Manage Multiple Open Windows”

(page 45)

)

Clone windows and tabs (see

“Clone Tabs” (page 46)

)

Expand and collapse window panes (see

“Expand and Collapse Panes” (page 46)

)

Manage Multiple Open Windows

The HPDM “cloning” feature makes it easy to display information in a separate window without
having to launch a new instance of HPDM. To help you manage multiple windows, HPDM
provides a Windows Manager that lists all of the open windows and provides functions for
displaying and closing these windows.
