Hiding Windows Temporarily - IBM 3270 Manual

Hiding Windows Temporarily
You can temporarily hide a window that is
usually on your screen. You may want to make
your screen less "busy" or you may not want
someone else to see what is in one of your
windows. Of course, you must have another
window to hide it behind.
To hide a window:
1.
Use the Jump key to choose the window you
want to hide.
2. Press the WSCtrl key.
3. Press the Hide key (PF9).
The active window will disappear behind one
of the other windows on your screen. If your
windows are full size, the active window on
your screen will be replaced by another
window that will fill the screen.
You cannot jump to the hidden window as
long as it is hidden.
4.
If you want to hide another window, repeat
steps
1
through 3
5. If you are want to leave the window hidden
and go on with other work, press the WSCtrl
key again.
You are done.
