[Bug 121903] New: It is no longer possible to open two same files at
the same time
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=121903
Bug ID: 121903
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: It is no longer possible to open two same files at the
same time
Classification: Application
Product: Writer
Version: AOO400-dev
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: configuration
Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
Reporter: richet@gmx.de
CC: issues@openoffice.apache.org
It is very convenient to be able to open two same files at the same time.
It was possible to do it in the past but it is now unpossible.
When I want to write things, change some sentances or add some commentaries
allways at the end or at a certain part of a document (e.g.: the bibliography,
where a set of figures are placed or the introduction), it is very confortable
to be able to write at two parts of your file just by selecting alternatively
two windows, instaed of draging the cursor up & down in order to write
forewards or afterwards.
Microsoft has been aware of this problem, since it is now possible to cut the
Word window into two parts, so that the Word user can write at two different
places of the file. But it is a wrong answer to the problem, since the two
parts of the word windows are very thin and therefore very unconfortable.
This is why, I am asking you, please, to reintroduce the possibility of opening
two windows of the same file (And any change made in one window should be
registred in the other).

--- Comment #3 from rainerbielefeld <ra...@bielefeldundbuss.de> ---
NOT reproducible with server installation of "AOO 4.0.0-Dev – English UI /
German locale [AOO400m1(Build:9700) - Rev. 1479897 (2013-05-09)]" on WIN7 Home
Premium (64bit)", own separate user profile
Steps how I tried:
1. opened attached Sample document from AOO Start Center, menu 'file -> Open
2. Click behind blue text "I can Type here" and type "111"
3. Menu 'Window -> New Window'
4. Scroll to end of Text
5. Click behind red text "I ALSO can Type here" and type "aaa"
6. Menu 'Window' and switch to other view, you can continue typing behind "111"
and type "222"
7. Menu 'Window' and switch to other view, you can continue typing behind "aaa"
and type "bbb"
So I can not see anything what does not work as expected. Fixed in between or
misunderstanding?
@richet:
Please feel free to reopen the Bug if I misunderstood your problem and if the
problem still is visible for you with the latest AOO-dev versions.
Please consider that long texts in broken English are not useful for other
users if they try to reproduce a problem. So if you reopen the Bug please
contribute a clear and simple instruction (as you can see here) what other
users will have to do to reproduce your observations.

Thanks for the answer :-).
How can I know which build I am using?
Please excuse me, if I haven't been clear.
I mean, that I would like to be able to open twice a same file.
The reason is that it would be very confortable to write, correct or suppress
letters, words or sentences in two different places of the file just by
changing the selected window instead of draging the cursor up & down.

Please specify the build, which you use, exactly. Or do you try it a wrong way?
You have to open the file and then use Window > New Window.
Window > New Window works without problems for me with OOo3.4 and with the
developer version AOO350m1(Build:9611)-Rev. 1424563 and with
AOO400m1(Build:9700)-Rev. 1453677.
