Hi,

1. The flowing view ports are not linked together even though the link view port option is checked. The viewports are only linked among non flowing viewports.

Edit: 1,3 monitor ( where flowing viewports displayed) are not linked…

1. After runing 4view, the flowing viewport window size becomes smaller. ( should stay the same size)

2. As I requested before, each flowing view port should have it’s own command bar. When users use many monitors with flowing viewport on each monitor, it’s hard for users keep moving head among different monitors to type command. Plus, decrease the productivity.
