Documents can display in one or more windows in one or more monitors. When Inventor starts up, the default window is "My Home" and the tab displays this icon . You can turn off the default display in Application Options, on the General tab. The documents tab menu displays the window layout options and the active document.
When you pause the cursor over a file name on the bottom of the Inventor graphics window, a tooltip displays showing a thumbnail image and the document information as shown here:
Add a document to the window by dragging a document tab into the tab bar until the blue frame edge previews below the tabs, then drop it. The document window remains a single document type.
Create a new application window by dragging a document tab and dropping it in the graphics display, desktop, or another monitor.
Create a new application window set
by dragging the set tab bar out of the main window to the graphics display, desktop, or another monitor
In the upper right corner of the display area for each model window there are two controls:
You can create window layouts using the Documents menu at the right end of the window tab bar.
Arrange - arranges all documents in the current window in a grid. Tab groups are dispersed into individual documents. All minimized documents are ignored.
If the windows are tiled, resizing affects all windows equally.
To resize adjacent tiled windows, click-drag the frame between the two document windows. Both windows are resized at the same time.
The new window displays the active file in the current window, adding another tab. Use the view navigation tools and window tools to adjust your workspace.
