'New window' does work well across multiple screens

OS X 10.11.3 (15 D 21)

I have two monitors connected to my rMBP with Thunderbolt ports.

To facilitate the description, I want hereby the two views under A and b.

Assuming an application (for example, chrome, finder) window was launched in A display. So I want to open another window display B. I right click the icon in the Dock on display B and click on 'new window '.

What I expected, it's a new window opens in view B because I clicked on 'new window' display B, but the reality is a new window always opens in display has.

On the other side, the same operation between different spaces (desktops) has no such situation. New windows are open correctly in places where they are "printing".

Is there a bug in 'new window' between multiple screens?

Hello is.

I understand that you are wanting to open new windows of applications on the screen that you are working on. It is perhaps because of the way in which several screens are managed. Revisit some information to get this working for you.

When you open a new window of an application, it will open in the active view. Even if you have the dock on the other screen, look at your taskbar to see if it is translucent. If this is the case, then it is not your main screen and your applications will be opened on the main screen. See the image below for what I will speak about reference.

Take a look at the article below for more information on the use of several screens. I know the article refers to the Mavericks, but the information extends to OS X El Capitan as features are concerned.

  • RT-20372 said backspace does not work for TextField, but if you open the new window it works

    Hello

    See this bug (registration required) = "TextField doesn't consume backspace and delete key events.

    I use this

    • Win 7/64-bit
    • last 7 + updates java to update
    • Kepler Eclipse + efxclipse

    I'm a developer of this application from https://github.com/Johnmalc/BankApp , I encountered the problem that shouldn't work. For me it works and I don't know why?

    The said bug that backspace does NOT work in the textfield. But in my case If I open a new window (concert at the scene) and then back in the new window works fine. This is my example of this controller class that is responsible for such behavior.

    class Controller {
    @FXML
        private TextField AccountNumberField;
    .......
    
    @FXML
        void initialize() {
    AccountNumberMethod();
    .........
    }
    @FXML
        void AccountNumberMethod() {
            AccountNumberField.addEventFilter(KeyEvent.KEY_PRESSED, new EventHandler<KeyEvent>() {
    
                        @Override
                        public void handle(KeyEvent event) {
                            if (event.getCode() == KeyCode.ENTER) {
                                int AccountNumber = Integer.parseInt(AccountNumberField.getText());
                                ac.setAccountNumber(AccountNumber);
                            }
                        }
                    });
        }
    }
    
    
    
    
    

    And it is the class where I call class Conroller

    @FXML
         void NewAccount() {
              NewAccount.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() { //NewAccount is button
    
                   @Override
                   public void handle(ActionEvent event) {
                        Parent root;
                        try {
                             root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("/res/account.fxml"));
                             Stage stage = new Stage();
                             stage.setScene(new Scene(new Group(root)));
                             stage.show();
                        } catch (IOException e) {
                             System.out.println("error");
                        }
                        event.consume();
                   }
              });
         }

    So my question: which is on purpose or it is a bug that should be reported.

    You can also see my 3 files of the application here https://github.com/Johnmalc/BankApp/tree/master/src/application

    Thank you. Ask me more if needed.

    @malcjohn

    Well, that said, in your controller, you event filters that consume all events events KEY_PRESSED on text fields. So it is little surprise that the text field does not have to receive some key events. It is not at all clear to me why you did it; These event filters treat only enter anyway, so why not simply manipulate the ACTION_EVENT on these controls. (If I understand it, the key events that generate text characters are managed by listeners for KEY_TYPED text fields, while for non-text characters key events are handled by event listeners KEY_PRESSED. Which is why you normally receive the regular keys.)

    Your event management is extremely complicated anyway. You register methods in the FXML to manage events, but the methods themselves define the event handler, instead of having just the event handling code. Then, you call these methods manually from the method initialize anyway. You seem to have yourself confused about management of the events of JavaFX. You probably want to read the tutorial that explains how to manage the events just by using the code Java and then read the section "add rows to the table" in the FXML tutorial to see how to save FXML event handlers. You currently have some weird hybrid of the two techniques, which is not what you think it does.

  • Opening a link using "Open link in a new window" does not work. I can only use option 'open in a new tab '. Is this normal with the Firefox 4?

    I have really no more info. When I upgraded my Firefox to the latest version I noticed that I can ' t use this open in a new window option. I reinstalled the software using the U.S. English version (first time I chose the UK English version), but in vain.

    I solved the problem by disabling the Yahoo toolbar extension.

  • ion will open a new window does not work

    Firefox 3.6.3, Windows Vista 64-bit. When I 'open in a new window', it is not the case, but apparently another instance of Firefox opens in the background. After closing Firefox, if I open the ask Manager, I see another instance running I have to kill before I can restart Firefox. I also noticed that my help to download the video no longer appears in the navigation bar, or on the Tools menu, even if he says he did when I look at the options Add on. Not sure if this is related. I completely deleted Firefox and installed Firefox 3.6.3 and the problem remains.

  • I want the cursor to be in the address bar when you create a new window; It works for new tabs and a new private window, but not in safe mode.

    I tried following the advice offered in the different threads bit I found on this but nothing works out. I want the cursor to be in the address bar when I open a new window or when firefox opens without restoring a previous session. I solved the problem for new tabs via subject: config, but it does not work for the new windows. I tried safe mode and the problem persists. In a new private window, the cursor is in the address bar.

    A new window opens the homepage (default: subject: House) and not the new tab page (default: subject: newtab).

    Some of the built-in pages set the focus to the search bar on the web page, just like the Google site only.

    You can use a bookmark in the bookmarks toolbar that opens the subject: blank page.
    If you hold down the SHIFT key when you click this bookmark, then you open a new widow with this page.
    Otherwise, you need to set the home page to about: blank or on the point: about to have easy access to all the pages.

  • 'Right click menu/open in a new window' does not-nothing happens.

    When I right click on a link, a menu very long comes with many choices that have nothing to do with the links (like 'copy image'). When I select "open in new window' or 'open in a new tab', nothing happens. I've just updated to the latest version of FF yesterday (08/05/13). I don't have whatever it is personalized for the new facility. Before to install the new everything worked fine.

    Hello lindal, this is most likely caused by an outdated addon. one of them is firebug, so in case you have installed, please upgrade to the latest version.

  • No multiple tabs don't Preview in Windows 7 (worked well in 4.0b8)

    In Windows 7, it has been possible in Ffx 4.0b8 to see an overview of all the tabs in the windows taskbar and select a tabs in the preview show.
    This is useful, for example, just to check if the iGoogle page updates and there is new mail or anything like that.

    The taskbar icons resembled several pages when several tabs opens.

    Now, in 4.0b9, all that disappears, I see the preview of the real active tabs and not the other tabs. I can't select another tab of the windows task bar. The icon in the taskbar does not resemble several page when multiple tabs are open

  • Is it possible to open several windows in firefox 5.0? I can't do windows quick launch and the right click "open in a new window" does nothing.

    Yes, not much more to say. Since I've upgraded to firefox 5.0, I opened several windows. Several tabs to work, but I don't like tabs. Help, please.

    See if they work in Mode safe mode, which is very easy to test Firefox 5.

    Safe mode: to appear in safe mode, a time when you do not not tick the subjects (they are definitely not safe). Help ('Alt + H") >"restart with disabled modules. If there is no problem then it is almost certainly of an extension.

    If it works, try to find the addon (s) causing the problem.

    1. Disable half of the extensions and restart Firefox. At this point, you are no longer using safe and test extensions.
    2. If the problem persists, disable half of the other extensions

    If it does not work select last half of people disabled
    Then restart. and check again at step 2.

    In case of failure to isolate the problem return answer and so resolute mark thread as resolved.

    Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

  • Windows does not load the login screen

    Hello. I'm running Windows 7 on my laptop and when I boot it will not go to the login screen. The screen turns black with only the cursor showing. I also want to add that my computer did the same thing when trying to enter in safe mode. I don't have a disc of resettlement. Please help I need to access important information.

    1 you need to borrow an installation disc or a system repair disc [32-bit if yours is 32-bit, 64-bit, one if yours is 64-bit].  There is nothing that you can do without one of them.  Buy an installation disc if necessary - see Amazon reinstallation discs and note that these are inexpensive because you pay only one disk not a license.

    2. start the computer from the disk borrowed or purchased.

    3. restart normally and the problem should be gone.  The problem could never happen again.  There are other details of this in a computer running that Windows 7 does not start when force you the computer to shut down.

    4 once you are up and running then consider the steps recommended in why is my screen black when I start Windows 7 to reduce the risk of a recurrence.

    5 you can also search this forum for a black cursor screen as there is a lot of discussion on this issue.
