<p>A method constrains the number of displays which are simultaneously available to an operator on a display surface in a multi-windowed computer environment. Each display is displayed having predetermined display characteristics, including position and size, such that each display is in an assigned window which is a unique area of the display surface. The method comprises the steps of determining the display characteristics of a first application display which is about to be displayed. If a second application display is already being managed with the same display characteristics, the second application display is closed while maintaining the display characteristics from the first application display. The first application display is launched for display and is displayed in the same position as the closed second application display, thereby constraining the number of displays.</p> |
