new window, a warning message is displayed.

To create a new window you will first need to close one of the existing windows.

5.3 Switching Between Windows

If your window group contains more than one Sabre window, you can easily switch between the
windows. Only one Sabre window can be active at a time. You can tell which window is active
by looking at the title bar of the windows—the active window has a darker blue title bar while the
inactive windows have a lighter blue title bar.

 To make a window active:


Position the mouse pointer anywhere on the window
that you want to make active, and click the left mouse
button.
From the “Window” menu, select the window that
you want to make active. You can also type the
number of the window from the menu, or use the
“Up/Down Arrow” keys to highlight the desired
window and press the “Enter” key.

Note:
You can also switch among windows by pressing the “CTRL+F6” keys until the desired window
becomes active. If a Sabre window has been minimized to an icon, you can double click on the
icon to re-open the window.

5.4 Renaming a Window

You can rename each window in the window group using the following instructions.

1. Click on and select the window you wish to rename.


2. From the “Window” menu select the “Rename” menu item. The “Rename Window”
window will appear.

3. In the “Rename Window as:” field type in the new name of the window and then click on the
“OK” button to change.

5.5 Arranging Windows

You can arrange windows in the window group using the following instructions.

If you have more than one Sabre window open, there are commands that you can use to
automatically arrange the windows on your screen. You can use two methods to arrange windows
- tiling and cascading.
 Tiling is used to arrange the windows so that all windows are visible on the desktop, and
no window overlaps another window. You can tile the window horizontally or vertically.
 Cascading is used to arrange the windows so that the windows overlap each other on the
desktop, and the title bar of each window is visible.

Tile Horizontally

1. From the “Window” menu select the “Tile Horizontally” menu item. The windows will be
tiled horizontally.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________
Sabre Native Terminal Emulator (SNTE) – EMP User’s Guide. August, 2013 Confidential and Proprietary Sabre Inc.
36
Tile Vertically

2. From the “Window” menu select the “Tile Vertically” menu item. The windows will be tiled
vertically.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________
Sabre Native Terminal Emulator (SNTE) – EMP User’s Guide. August, 2013 Confidential and Proprietary Sabre Inc.

Cascade

1. From the “Window” menu select the “Cascade” menu item. The windows will be cascaded.

5.6.1 Arranging Minimized Windows

If you have minimized more than one window, you can have SNTE automatically arrange
the window icons at the bottom of the SNTE window.

 To arrange the Sabre window icons:

1. From the “Window” menu select the “Arrange Icons” menu item. The windows will
be arranged at the bottom of the SNTE window.

5.7 Redirecting a Response to another Window

Sabre responses are normally displayed in the active window where you make the Sabre entry.
The "redirect response" feature of SNTE allows you to type a Sabre entry in one window and
redirect the Sabre response to another window while your cursor stays in the original window.
This is especially useful when you need to view additional Saber information without disrupting
the information that is displayed in your active window.
For example:
You might wish to see a flight availability in your active Sabre window and fare quote information
in another window without clearing the flight availability information.
You can use either a keyboard shortcut to redirect a Sabre response to another window, or you can
select the “Redirect Response” command from the “Window” menu.

Redirect Using The Keyboard:

1. Type the Sabre entry in the active window, but do not press the “Enter” key.
2. Press the “CTRL” KEY + the number of the window where you would like to display the Sabre
response.
For example:
To redirect the Sabre response to window number 2, you would type “CTRL+2”.
The Sabre response is then displayed in the selected window.
Note:
If you redirect the response to an invalid window number, the response is displayed in the
active Sabre window.

User has installed Java 1.5.0_11 in C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_11
Environment variable “SNTE_JAVA_HOME” is required with the value C:\Program
Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_11.
