CreateWindow

CreateWindow[notebook_RemoteNotebook]

opens a notebook in a new window

CreateWindow[expr, opts]

creates a new window with expr shown in StandardForm. CreateWindow returns RemoteCellObj.

CreateWindow[cellExpr, opts]

creates a new window with cellExpr rendered:

here CreateWindow also returns RemoteCellObj.

Options

WindowSize

Sets size {w,h} of the created window in pixels.

WindowTitle

Sets the name of created window.

"Notebook"

Specify the notebook (optional) associated with a created window.

Examples

Basic examples

Print graphics to a new window:

win = CreateWindow[Graphics3D[Cuboid[]]];

then close it:

NotebookClose[win];

Print HTML content to a new window:

CreateWindow[Cell["<h2 style=\"color:red\">Hello World</h2>", "Output", "HTML"]];

A window that opens another window

This is possible if you provide the notebook in Options; otherwise, the system does not know where to open it:

man := ManipulatePlot[Sin[x w], {x,-1,1}, {w,1,5}];

open[n_] := CreateWindow[man];

CreateWindow[EventHandler[InputButton[], Function[Null, open[n]]]]

This will continue to work even if you close the original notebook.

Tracking created window

You can assign handlers to events from the window:

state = "";
TextView[state // Offload, "Label"->"State"]

win = CreateWindow[ExpressionCell[Plot[x,{x,0,1}], "Output"]];
EventHandler[win, {
	"Mounted" -> Function[Null, state = "Mounted"],
	"Closed" -> Function[Null, state = "Closed"]
}];
