JBF Yes, I tried that. Using that method you can only open one additional document of the same name. I work with huge displays where there may need to be several copies of the same document on the display at the same time. That's why I have requested this feature. I also launch libreoffice through a program I wrote automatically so that's why I requested a command line switch. In the interim, I've written a wrapper program which creates read only clones of the document and allows you to open as many copies of a document as you like. But if this feature were to be built in, that would be awesome. If anyone wants to see my wrapper code written in C#, let me know. I understand this feature is rather niche, but I thought I'd request it anyway.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
