Re: openning in a seperate window.



I think you don't launch gnumeric, but a gnumeric viewer inside nautilus
(does new version of gnumeric have it now ?). On your file, do right click and move you mouse cursor on the "Open with" tab. You'll have a selection of applications and nautilus viewers. Choose one application and it will launch and open your file outside of nautilus (and you can work on it). See the Nautilus help->Navigating your computer->Opening Files.

hello all,

When i double click on a file in the nautilus and it is a file
that can be opened by a gnome application (i.e. a ps file or a gnumeric file)
it opens it up with, for example, gnumeric IN THE NAUTILUS WINDOW.  is
there a way to tell nautilus to use a new window?

Open a nautilus window. Click on 'Edit', then 'Preference's. Click on
the 'Behavior' tab. Check 'Open activated item in a new window'. Note,
however, that this will open a new window every time you open a folder.
Hope this helps.
