ACAD 2002 multiple sessions.....

ACAD 2002 multiple sessions.....

(OP)
Is this possible. I used ACADR14 for the longest time but it was great for dual monitor setup. Can 2002 and later, do the same. I know you can have multiple drawings open in one session of autocad 2002, just wondering if it is possible to have another session open. Thanks.

RE: ACAD 2002 multiple sessions.....

(OP)
Figured it out, if anyone is interested.

had to check "single drawing compatibilty mode"

TOOLS>OPTIONS>system tab

RE: ACAD 2002 multiple sessions.....

Which box of the tools>options>system tab did you make the correction?

RE: ACAD 2002 multiple sessions.....

System.
the variable is SDI

ADT 2004

Sorry to be more clear:

Tool menu > Options > Select the "System" Tab >

then in the general options box the first click box
"single drawing compatibilty mode"
make sure this is checked

>apply>ok

After this you'll have seperate sessions of autocad.

of course using SDI at the command prompt is much easier thanks Exxit
