When you do a task in Horizon, you must first start the process that lets you do the task. If you have already started several processes, you can activate the open process window that you want to use. The active window’s title bar displays in a different color from other open windows. If the windows are displayed in a cascade, the active window moves to the front.
If you cannot activate a different window, the currently active window needs attention before you can continue. You must either close the window, or cancel or finish its process.
For example, if the window is a search window, you must complete the search, cancel the search, or close the window before you can start a different process.
Horizon lets you use several different methods to start most processes. The various tasks in this guide usually give only one or two of the methods. As you work with Horizon, you will discover which methods are most convenient for you.
For example, if you work best using a mouse, you may choose to use the menu bar to start processes. If you prefer using a keyboard, you may choose to use keyboard shortcuts.
