Can't Open Multiple windows

[donnagarnet]

I'm in the habit of listening to internet radio while I do other very important retired old lady stuff (read email, FB posts, & Tweets, foment revolution, & generally waste time). With "Natty", I'm not being allowed to open more than one window. I can listen to progressive radio or tweet the coming revolution, but not both.

When I try to open a second window, nothing happens.

Is this something I can overcome (no doubt by doing something correctly for a change) or something I have to live with?

Thanks, kids.

Thanks for asking.

If you mean opening two instance of applications, let say you want to open two windows of "application-x", all you need to do is to middle-click its icon in the launcher or in the dash.

And if you mean opening two different applications at once, let say you want to open "application-x" and "application-y", you can just simply do the usual clicking just like in windows.

If opening two different applications cannot be done, I'm pretty sure it's a bug. If that's the case, please report it to https://launchpad.net

Yeah, if you want to open multiple "instances" of the program then all you have to do is right click it and select open in a new window.
