For some newer applications, every new/opened document is opened in its own window, so document arrangement arranges those windows on the desktop, not tiled within one application window.
Currently you can open two (or more) instances of Prime on your desktop and use OS functionality to arrange side by side and copy/paste content where needed. You can also copy/paste between worksheets in one instance of Prime (though it's true you can't see more than one worksheet at any one time - you have to copy the content, select a different worksheet tab and paste).
However, we do want to implement some UI that will allow easy arrangement of worksheets. Do you feel that we should follow the workflow of other applications and have new worksheets always open in a new window (maybe move away from the tabbed browser)? Or just allow the tabs to be viewed/arranged in one Mathcad window?
Certainly opening up a second instance of Prime is a work around. I like the tabs on top of the worksheet. It would be convenient if we could arrange the open files in a single window of prime.
I realize this is an old thread, but for the love of God, v15 and many before it tiled multiple documents in the same screen.
I don't understand why the standard response from PTC is to find a workaround and make the claim they listen to their customers yet are dismissed as if we're asking for unreasonable and fringe requests when they are demonstrated all over the place with the same level of disbelief that Prime would stubbornly eliminate basic and simple software tools & functions that are considered 'back-burner' suggestions when they affect everyone using their software on a regular basis. This makes for very inefficient use of Prime where we were very efficient in v15 and prior.
I can easily see why my boss and upper management wants me to stop using MathCAD now that they've seen the results of switching to Prime. They are not happy where their funding is being spent, on new features I will never use while the basic ones are hindered, full of band-aid workarounds or in some cases simply dysfunctional. Worksheets that worked in v15 do not compute in Prime 7.0
