Work 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.
