Unwanted Magic Sheet switching

Scenario .... I have two external monitors on an Eos, with a Magic Sheet tab open on each. Tab A needs to flip between Magic Sheets 1 and 2 (there's a button on MS1 to switch to MS2, and vice versa). Tab B needs to be showing MS3 at all times.

The trouble is, after setting things up that way, if I hit the button on the MS in tab A to switch from MS1 to MS2, it changes the view in tab B and I lose MS3. How can I stop this behaviour, and only have the MS in tab A responding to the button?

  • There are plans for a Magicsheet navigation object that will fix this situation. It is supposed to be in 2.3 (hint hint, nudge nudge)

    Currently you have a couple of options :

    Option 1 - Build some Macros to handle the MS switching. The key difference with the Macros is that you can specify a Tab Number. Tab_down # Tab_Up Magicsheet # Part # Enter - Will switch a specific Tab to a specific Sheet and specific view. The downside of this is it will switch focus to the MS Tab.

    Option 2 - If your MSs are full screen you can use single screen snapshots to change a specific screen to a specific sheet.

    Edit - loosing all the formatting in a post still sucks
