Advanced
Use this tab to define the following properties for the window:Topmost, Sizeable, Visible, Show title bar.
The default setting (indicated with gray checkmark in checkbox) maintains the properties of a window. Select a
property you want to change by clicking on it (black checkmark) or unselect a property (no checkmark).
The Topmost option means that the selected window will always be displayed on top of all the others.
Sizable means that the size of the window can be changed using the mouse or the system menu. A window
with an unchangeable size setting snaps to the grid with its upper left corner if Tile has been activated while a
window with a changeable size can snap to the grid with all four corners.
Use the Visible property to show or hide a window. A invisible window is not displayed in the taskbar either.
Windows are invisible when loading a layout if the Visible property has not been activated.
Select Show title bar to show the title bar of the window, clear the checkmark to hide the title bar.
How to treat unexpected windows (error messages, etc.) is specified on this tab as well. Unexpected windows
are not defined in the layout but should not appear on the desktop randomly. Choose from the following options:
Do Not Treat Unexpected Windows, Center on this Window, Hide Unexpected Windows.
These settings overrule the settings which might be defined in the Default Area. Settings
of the Default Area ar only applied in case of "Don't handle unexpedted windows".
However, the Center on this Window option also minimizes unexpected windows that are larger than the win-
dows of the application and centers all unexpected windows of the same application (identical process ID) within
its window.
To change the settings subsequently, select the desired entry in the Tree View and then click on
Properties|Layout in the menu bar.
