    Does anyone else have this problem?

    I’m using Windows XP, and every time I enter Newviews, I need to right click on the title pane, click on properties, click on full window, click yes.

    The yes is in answer to the question “do you want to make this the default view?” or something like that–but it doesn’t matter because no matter what I do, I need to go through this procedure every time.

    Does anyone know how to get NewViews to open into a maximized window, and stay that way?

    Ah – not really? I presume you can preset this, but I simply do {ALT} +{Enter} and toggles the (any) window to max or not including NewViews.

    Assuming you have placed an Icon on the Windows desktop for NV, then Right Click the Icon, Lf click Prop, Lf click Screen and check Full Screen.

    Thanks very much, Henry!
    A frustration taken out of my day.

    David, (alt) + (enter) didn’t work for me, and I tried it on a number of different programs. Do you need to be in a particular place for this to work? (i.e., on the icon before opening; on the title bar, etc.)

    Thanks again,
    Jenn

    Hmm – I appear to stand corrected. IN prior versions of Windows, this used to work with any program.

    However it still does work with NewViews. The NewViews program (your books) must “have the focus” for the Alt Enter combination to work.

    OR more simply put, when you are in a set of books, hold down either ALT Key, and then press the ENTER Key.

    Your NewViews screen should toggle between Window’d, and full screen.

    Hope this helps
    Regards

    Jenn:

    David is correct that Alt + Enter, works while you are in NV. It switches NV from Full Screen to a Window screen, or Visa Versa. However it does not change the default. That’s changed as explained.

    It does not work with other programs.
