DDS Display files enable more than 1 subfile horizontally, side by side.

Enhance DDS for display files to place more than one subfile horizontally at the same time.


Use Case:

Solution 1: Add a parameter to the subfile control record, maybe POSITION(*HORIZONTAL), to be displayed next to another subfile.

Solution 2: Enable more than one DDS window to be active at the same time. Allow to define a DDS window not as modal. Thus placing each subfile in its own DDS window they could be displayed side by side.
