Floating mode vs standard mode

The Infront Professional Terminal was traditionally a Multiple Document Interface (MDI) application (standard mode).

In the standard mode, there is one large main window that contains all the individual windows (such as markets, orderbooks, watchlists and charts). This makes it very easy to use, but it does limit the flexibility in where you can place windows and external applications. To overcome these limitations, we introduced an optional mode, the floating mode. In the floating mode, each individual window can be dragged across multiple screens and is not confined to one large main window.

Enable floating mode

To enable floating, go to the "⋮" menu on the top right, and select "Settings". Under "Workspace layout", select the "Floating (windows can be dragged across multiple screens)" option.

You need to restart the Infront Professional Terminal for the changes to take place.

We recommend placing the toolbar at the top of your monitor so that it is easy to find.
