How to open conversations in external windows
Edited

Overview

Sometimes, you might want to work on multiple conversations at once. Front makes it easy to pop out entire conversations into separate, external windows, so you can work on them simultaneously.


Instructions

Shortcut

Step 1

Double-click on the desired conversation in your conversation list. This will pop out the entire thread into an external window.

Step 2

From the conversation window, you can comment, reply, or tag it as usual even after selecting a different conversation in your main app window.

Step 3

To pop the conversation back in to your main app window, click the arrow in the upper right corner. This will move you to that conversation in your main app window. If you simply close the external window, you will stay on whatever conversation is currently selected in your app.

Conversation menu

Instead of using the double-click shortcut, you can also click on the three-dot menu at the top of the conversation, then View in external window.
