2 canvases on one window

[puredesi5]

How would I show two canvasses on one window. I created three canvasses(c1, c2, & c3) , and 2 windows(w1 & w2). On canvas property for c1 & c2, I put W1 to see them together. When I run it, it doesn't work, It shows me C1 first, then I hit ctrl-pg dwn, it goes to c2 and then to c3. What am I doing wrong??

Make C2 a stacked canvas and C1 large enough to contain both. In the forms designer open C1 then go to Tools->Stacked Views and select C2 from the list. Then move C2 around until it it in the desired position on C1.

In your WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE trigger, do a SHOW_VIEW('C1');

Thamks lewisp,

That worked, but what if my C1 canvas was horizontal tab and I wanted to show C1 and C2 together. I can not choose stacked and horizontal tab for same canvas.

You will need three canvases, one for the tab then C1 and C2 become stacked.
