Cascade windows

giUNMZF — Wed, 22 Jun 2022 12:59:47 GMT

I used to be able to cascade windows like this in inventor.

Is this still possible in Inventor 2022?

Now I can only Arrange windows edge to edge.

Hi @giUNMZF

Ithink it's still posible to arrange windows manually by holding & draging the lower frame of each window.

That I can do :-), but they are still only edge to edge.

I would like my windows to be overlapping if possible

I hate it when their "enhancements" involve taking away features we have been using for years. Especially when its a feature used in almost every windows based program.

Thank goodness someone will show up with a workaround to save Autodesk's face.

Drag the tab with the file name outside IV windows. Not 100% what you need but closer.

I'll like the Tree in the window also.

Thanks, and to build upon that, (get ready for a workaround) since I have dual monitors I found that if I drag the tabs to the other monitor, and then on that monitor, go to the taskbar, RMC, and select Cascade Windows, it makes it look like what I want. I'm not sure if its functional at this point for what I use it for., and if you have any other windows on that monitor it they get mixed into the cascading.
