Hi,

very often I use more than 1 window while editing a file in lyx.

I'd like to have a function like window-new-current-buffer, which
behaves like

in emacs File-New Frame, e.g. creates a new window with the current
buffer displayed.


Note thatere is a checkbox in prefs for opening new files in new windows

That is nice. Though not exactly fitting to the desired feature.
I like windows _and_ tabs.

new function request

[Kornel Benko]

Hi,
very often I use more than 1 window while editing a file in lyx.
This is handy, but starting with window-new forces me always also
to use File-Open...

I'd like to have a function like window-new-current-buffer, which behaves like
in emacs File-New Frame, e.g. creates a new window with the current buffer 
displayed.

I checked, if there were a possibility to use command-sequence, but could not 
find
a way to get actual buffer name to use.
(I had in mind:
command sequence set-current-buffer-name into somename; buffer-new; 
buffer-switch (in new window) somename
)

But even if I had the buffer name, the sequence would not work, because 
buffer-switch does not address the new window.

Kornel

You should use View menu (see bottom).

 I'd like to have a function like window-new-current-buffer, which behaves 
 like

I support this request, though I think that better would be make it part of 
window-new LFUN
(e.g. adding optional parameter windows-new current-buffer).
It shouldn't be hard to implement.
