Selecting MDI Modes

GnuCash can display multiple views of your finances at once, in multiple windows, a tabbed "notebook" style, or in one plain window. This facility is provided through the GNOME MDI (multiple document interface). When you open a new account tree or report using the file menu, the new view can be displayed in several ways.

Notebook View

Notebook view puts all new views in the main window, but places them on named tabs - just like a real notebook, in fact. You can bring a notebook tab to the front by clicking on it.
