It appears that the only way to have multiple windows open is to start a new session in the browser in a separate window or tab. Is this true? As NAV RTC users, it is not unheard of to have several windows open at once. How is this being managed in the new client? It seems unacceptable to have each window open right on top of the last one opened. Yikes.

I know this is marked as completed, but it's still worse than the RTC. I feel like it should be marked Complete, But Still Worse than RTC. It really feels like this application is geared toward new users, and the wishes and needs of longstanding Navision customers are not taken under serious consideration.

I am very pleased that this was considered and made its way into the environment (I'm sure I'm not the first one to have thought that we'd like this back in BC).
As you're well-aware, I'm sure, the Open in New Window feature isn't nearly as snappy as the method from the old RTC. Additionally, if you're on a list of records and you edit a record, that record should bounce to its own window, all on its own. Having the record open right on top of this list is intrusive, in our opinion. If there were a control that could enable or disable how an individual record opens, that would be great. Even if that's using extensions, and making that adjustment document by document, that's be a step in the right direction.

Also take into account that not only an end user should be able to open a page in a new window / tab, but we should be able to programmaticaly control this as well. In RTC we currently have actions on the RoleCenter that launch 2 separate pages (not stacked / in separate windows = native RTC behavior) that gives the user a drag / drop alike experience for 'planning' different kind of entities. Our end users mainly use 2 to 3 monitors, one containing the first page with plannable entities (e.g. shipments), the second monitor containing a page with the resource (e.g. truck) on which the entity has to be planned.

Also wondering how RUN vs RUNMODAL of pages would behave if pages are stacked on top of each other?
