Working with multiple drawings

Multiple drawings can be opened in a single drawing window, making it easy to handle many drawings simultaneously. You can access each open drawing from its tab at the top of the drawing window, and you can start new drawings.

Open drawings appear docked, but you can undock any drawing you want and drag it inside or outside the application window.

You can also arrange drawings in overlapping (cascading) windows, side by side, or stacked vertically.

To work with multiple drawings

To	Do the following
Switch to another open drawing	At the top of the drawing window, click the tab that has the filename you want. An asterisk after the filename shows that the file has unsaved changes.
Start another drawing	Click the New button to the left of the last tab in the drawing window.
Undock a drawing	Drag the tab to a new position inside or outside the application window.

•

Cascade — arranges drawings so that they overlap and the title bars are visible

•
