Hi great wizards, I have noticed that if I have a tree open in FTM2012, then try to open another tree in a new window - The FTM application initializing banner sits there and if I minimise all windows back to my desktop I see a small window which says tree does not exist Rubbish I say to this little window, close it and FTM opens with the Create New Tree window. I then click on the tree I tried to open in a new window previously and it does. I now have both my trees open and can move between the both of them. This did not happen in FTM2011 where I could open trees in new windows without any problems Why is this so ?????
I'm sorry but I'm not experiencing this problem. I have a file open. On the Plan work area, I select a second file and select in a New Window. I see the program initialization dialog window. Eventually, a new FTM 2012 window opens showing the desired file. Is this how you are attempting to open the second file? If you are attempting to open by double clicking on the file name, you may have a problem. I had to reinstall FTM 2011 after I had installed FTM 2012. This caused the Windows file to be associated with FTM 2011. So when I attempt to open a FTM 2012 file, FTM 2011 is opened but doesn't recognize the file. So it offers to create a new tree. I'm running FTM 2012 build 388 under Windows 7 Pro on a 32-bit machine.
