Using the split screen functionality

Use the split screen functionality to pair with another M3 program or other external sites. This functionality is useful if you have SDK applications that are connected to Infor Business Context messages.

Note: You can pair with external sites only in the new H5 UI.

You can drag and drop a data or text in between paired program tabs. The data or text can be placed in any available text field of the activated program tab.

  1. Open a program.
  2. Open another non-standard M3 program or any external website.
    Note: You can pair with external sites only in the new H5 UI.
  3. Click the program tab and drag over to the center section of another tab. Ensure that the tab where you form a pair is highlighted with a translucent shade. The dragged tab is positioned in the right of the tab pair by default. Both tabs are also displayed in active state.
    Note: The context menu can only be accessed in an active paired tab.
  4. Optionally, use these options to rearrange the paired programs or website:
    • By default, a paired tab is formed in vertical split. To pair tabs horizontally, right-click a tab header and select Split horizontally.
    • Exchange the position of the pairing either in vertical or horizontal arrangement. Right-click a tab header and select Exchange positions.

Decoupling paired tabs

  1. Click one of the tabs of an active tab pair and drag the tab to an empty space. When you start the drag movement, the tab automatically becomes a separate tab.
  2. Drag the tab to the opposite side of another tab or to the edge section where a drop indication filled with blue highlight is displayed. The underlying tabs automatically create space for the dragged tab.
  3. Release the tab to your new location.
  4. Alternatively, right-click the tab header of any paired program or website and select Unpair Tabs to remove the pairing.
