New Window Properties

If the pages should appear in another window, select Open links in a new window. CommonSpot then displays a New Window Properties button. Click on this button to display the New Window Properties dialog.

This dialog lets you name the window, set its position, size, and the characteristics of the new browser window.

Window Name - (Required) Enter an identifier for this window. This name is used internally by your browser.
Top - (Required) Enter a value in pixels for the top offset for the window.
Left: - (Required) Enter a value in pixels for the left offset for the window.
Width - Enter a value in pixels for the window’s width.
Height- Enter a value in pixels for the window’s height.
Toolbar - If checked, the browser displays its navigation and bookmark toolbars.
Location - If checked, the browser displays its location bar. (The location bar is where you type Web addresses.)

Directories - If checked, the browser displays its directory buttons.
Status - If checked, the browser displays its status bar at the bottom of the new window
Menubar - If checked, the browser displays its menubars.
Scrollbars - If checked, the window can display scroll bars if they are needed because the content will not fit in the window.
Resizeable - If checked, the user can resize the new window.

Click Save to keep window setting or Cancel to exit without saving. Click Default to reset the window to the settings shown above.

After you save these settings, the browser launches the linked content in a new window when a user clinks on the link.
