    2 Open Frames/Pages

    I've started using AMS again, and just realized that I can't have 2 Frames/Pages active at once in each "App-Frame".

    Do I miss something or is it not possible in AMS 7.5 to have 2 or more Frames/Pages active in each own "win-frame". NOTE: I'm not talking about Dialog's here, sure you can have alot of them, but they are bound to its parent(page) and the parent(page) doesn't seem accessible when dialog active/open/shown.

    Hope someone can shed some light on this confusing matter.

    Thx in Advance...

    If it's of any help, you could 'spoof' two pages sided by side by using a mask.

    The thing is, I have 2 monitors and want each page/app on seperate monitor.

    OK not an option then. It depends on what you want to do. One possible option is to run 2 apps both with page timers active one writing data to a file and the other reading the file periodically to get 'instructions'.

    At a more complex level, I think someone in the past has managed to get two windows to interact with each other but that is going outside the native capability of AMS which I don't do.

    Perhaps someone else will pick up on this.

    Sure I have one solusion for it. That is using LuaSocket to communicate between them, but doing that is to complicate it. Then I could stick with my current program I have made. But would like to make it in AMS.
