Separate Drawings on the Taskbar
By default, when you have AutoCAD open, you see one AutoCAD icon on the Windows taskbar, regardless of how many drawings you have open, as you see in this first image.
For those of you who want to see icons displayed along the Windows taskbar for all the drawings you have open, you will be happy to know the AutoCAD variable of… well, Taskbar… can make that happen.
Set the TASKBAR variable to <1>, then, when you have more than one drawing open, you will see an icon for each of the open drawings.

Donate to CADTutor
If you found this article useful, you might like to consider making a donation. All content on this site is provided free of charge and we hope to keep it that way. However, running a site like CADTutor does cost money and you can help to improve the service and to guarantee its future by donating a small amount. We guess that you probably wouldn't miss $5.00 but it would make all the difference to us.
Note from Michael: I want to thank all of my customers for continuing to retain my training services (some for over two decades!) and let you know your donations do not go to me personally, but to the ongoing maintenance of the CADTutor ship as a whole and to support the yeoman efforts of my friend and CADTutor captain, David Watson, to whom I am grateful for this monthly opportunity to share a few AutoCAD insights.
