  • 1.  ACS sessions only open in one windows (with tabs to sessions A, B, etc)

    I have installed ACS 1.1.9.5 using Semeru Runtime Open JDK 11.0.23. The installation went flawless on test computer but I discovered when I open multiple ACS sessions all the sessions open within one window in a tab format for each open session. (See attachment for visual.) 

    Our users are accustomed to opening multiple sessions, example A, B, and C, and each of those sessions opening up in a separate window / minimizing each window to taskbar and pulling up that particular session when needed. 

    Is there a way to configure the ACS to open multiple sessions in multiple windows?

    Use 5250 session manager to define 2 or more sessions to the same system and save this group, then adjust the settings of this group with preferences and uncheck the open in new tab function.

    Thank you, Peter. I appreciate the help. The Preference > Tab Setup was what I was overlooking.

    From 5250 window's menu bar select Edit --> Preferences --> Tab Setup and uncheck the fist option "Open new session in a new tab" in the General tab.
