Managing Windows in Eudora

Window States and Tabbed Windows

Every window in Eudora exists in one of three states.

■Normal

■Docked

■Floating

You can use these different window states to set up Eudora the way you want to see it on your screen. These states are described below and in the following sections.

A tabbed window is a collection of windows combined into a single window in which each window has its own tab, for activating and dragging. A tabbed window can exist in any of the above three window states: normal, docked, or floating. Tabbed windows are discussed separately below.

Note. Only tool windows, those windows accessible from the Tools menu, except the Options dialog box, can exist as docked windows, floating windows, and tabbed windows. All other windows in Eudora, particularly the mailbox TOC windows and message windows, exist only in the normal state and cannot be combined into tabbed windows.

The tool windows that can be docked, floating, or tabbed are as follows, in their order down the Tools menu.

Note. If you minimize and then restore the main Eudora window, then all normal, docked, and floating Eudora windows, including tabbed windows, are also minimized and restored with it.
