Side by Side Viewing

Hello,

Does anyone know if there is a way to view two separate models side by side? I know you can have more than one model open at once but you can't view both at the same time.

Hi @gen_bobondeez,

That's a good question. and the answer is YES. You can run two instances of Fusion at the same time. You just need to double click on the Fusion 360 icon on your desktop again and a new instance of Fusion will start. Here you go:

@Beyondforce

Did you do that on a Windows machine? I can't seem to do it on my Mac.

Yes, I have win10. I'm not sure about Mac. Maybe you should google how to run 2 software instances on Mac.

So just ignore the warning, that two instances are not supported?
