Hi all
I was supriced when zoom from ex, from view 1 (active view) with zoom window from target view 2 didn´t zoom in target window area from view 2 to view 1.
Example from V8i
Work as I am used to works as I am used to in V8i
But in Connect edition it is like this ( nowhere near what I did in V8i):
The same function with zoom from one view from an another view don`t work i Connect edition, with the same user workflow.
WHY?

Hi Tom the tool you highlited is the source view yet the dialog says to apply it to view 1 it should be view 2
It works the same in both versions for me but you have to be careful when choosing the source view view 1 and the applies to view 2 in the dialog

Sometimes I want to have my o0verview in View 2, yet direct my window area to View 1. Saves me a lot of zooming in and out. The tools allow that, so there's nothing wrong with what Tom is doing.

Wrong how?
Lorys said:in Toms Connect ed screen print the left hand window is view 1 and the apply to view is also view 1 so it didn't work for him in connect
it needed the apply window to be set to the other window ie 2 not 1

I think you need to take a look at the help file description of the Window Area command. His usage was not wrong, it was perfectly acceptable; he was just trying to do this (as described by MaryB above):
I love you, Lorys...I must have clicked that on accident!
Yes, I also use one small view (8) as overview/navigation window to pick different areas
