Preview Pane? when create embedded object

Is there a way to turn off the preview pane on the notes client when you perform the actioneditinsertobject(“ojbectname”)???

It brings up the embedded object properties windows. We would like to keep this hidden from our clients becuase it takes up space and would not be used.

Any ideas would be helpful.

this works :

@Command( [EditInsertObject] );

@Command( [EditGotoField] ; “Body” )

where “Body” is the name of the RTField you are editing

That didn’t do anything. It seems that anytime you insert an object into a richtext field. Version 6 brings up the embedded objects properties window at the bottom of the screen. You can hide it once it is up by dragging the window, or just closing the object and reoppening it. When you do this you do not see the window unless you click on the object, right mouse click and select edit properties.

I would like this to not show up when you first create the object.

Any help is appreciated.

If you need better detail on what I am attempting to do let me know.

Yes it is. This is a button on the top of the form that embeds a visio object. The users then create a sketch.formula is

@PostedCommand([EditBottom]);

Do(@PostedCommand([EditInsertObject]; “VISIO 4 Drawing”));

The field at the bottom of the form is what we are inserting the object into.

WE could have used editgotofield…

Do I need to compact the database???

I am running the notes 6.0 client.

Why do you want to compact your database ?

I try this and it works well for me :

@PostedCommand([EditBottom]);

@Do(@PostedCommand([EditInsertObject]; “Document WordPad”));

@PostedCommand([EditBottom]);

with R6.0.1

but you don’t need the @Do or @PostedCommand

this works as well :

@Command([EditBottom]);

@Command([EditInsertObject]; “Document WordPad”);

@Command([EditBottom]);

hope this will help !

Didn’t know if the database had to be in the r6 format for this to work.We are in the middle of an upgrade of all our clients and servers.

I am also on r6.0 wonder if it is different on 6.01.

Thanks for the input.
