Feature Request, Trend View Panes Enlargement
« on: August 11, 2026, 04:29:45 PM »
Hello,
   I just wanted to make a feature request concerning trend view. I have 4 trendview panes on the screen and as a result they are pretty small vertically. I understand that these can be resized but I would like to be able to see one pane using history option. It would be nice to have maximize button/minimize buttons, or be able to open the pane into a new screen for example.
Thanks
-Bar

Designer 2.11 has a new Arrange Windows feature under the Windows menu.

It will let you minimize, tile vertically or horizontally, cascade, activate, whatever, each of the main MDI windows.  I recommend maximizing Designer app before doing any MDI window arranging.

We do want to allow "tear off" Trend Views some day - we agree that's a good idea!

Thanks for the response. Just to clarify, and using your terminology, I would like to see a "Arrange Panes" feature for trendviews (including when in history mode) to "minimize, tile vertically or horizontally, cascade, activate," . Thanks!

Doh!  Sorry.  Interesting idea.  These are splitter windows, but some of the MDI arrangement can be done (e.g. I/O System View does some interesting stuff with its two splitter widows, "tiling" horizontally vs. vertically).
