<h1>Window Menu</h1>
<p>The Window menu gives you access to the various windows that AbiWord has open on your system.</p>
<h2>New Window</h2>
<p>This command creates a new window containing the current document. The name of the document is given in the title bar, followed by a colon and a number indicating the order in which the windows were created.</p>
<p>Any changes that you make to the document in one window are reflected in the others.</p>
<h2>Window List</h2>
<p>Below the New Window command is a list of all the windows currently open in AbiWord. Select a window to bring it to the front and put the insertion point within it.</p>
<p>If you have ten or more windows open, only the first nine opened are displayed on the menu. The tenth option becomes More Windows..., which opens the <a href="dialogviewdocument.html">View Document dialog</a> <a href="dialogactivatewindow.html"></a>, so that you can select any window.</p>
