You could use various Window options.
CreateDocument[{Plot3D[
Cos[x] Sin[y], {x, -2 \[Pi], 2 \[Pi]}, {y, -2 \[Pi], 2 \[Pi]}]},
Saveable -> False,
WindowSize -> {300, 250}];

Hi,
I am trying to display a 3D graphic in a separate window from my main
notebook. The idea is that as I'm editing the data driving the
graphic (regardless of where I am in the notebook), I can still see
and manipulate the visualization.
I can make this work with a command like:
CreateDocument[{
Plot3D[Cos[x] Sin[y], {x, -2 \[Pi], 2 \[Pi]}, {y, -2 \[Pi], 2 \
[Pi]}]
}]
However, the resulting window usually comes up much too large and in
seemingly random locations on my screen. A much better solution would
be something like:
CreatePalette[{
Plot3D[Cos[x] Sin[y], {x, -2 \[Pi], 2 \[Pi]}, {y, -2 \[Pi],
2 \[Pi]}]
}]
But on my system, the resulting graphic can not be rotated. I get
similar results if I use CreateDialog instead.
Does anyone have suggestions or workarounds which get me the best of
both worlds?
Thanks,
Januk
