Is there a way to reset 2009 to use named layout tabs like 2008?

 

In AutoCAD 2008 you could make layout tabs and label each layout tab

with a unique name on the bottem of the screen. In 2009 you are stuck

with a "Quick View Drawing" button that shows the actual layout pictures

at once. Is there a way to reset 2009 to named layout tabs like 2008?

 

Thank you

Right click either the Model or Layout icon. You'll be given the option to display tabs.

Where is the Model & Layout icon. What do they look like?

Bottom of your screen just right of center (first two icons you'll encounter going left to right). Just pause your mouse over each one and they will be identified as Model and Layout1.

There is a "quick view layout" which has a icon that looks like a drafting

board. I show pictures of layouts on the screen which have a tendency

to get in the way. I don't see where I can change layout tabs like it was

in previous versions when I right click my mouse.

Thank you,

I'm running 2009 and in my version the Model and Layout icons/buttons are just to the left of the Quick View Layout button. Right click either of those to change to tabs.

 

If these two buttons do NOT show up it is because you or one of your workmates turned them off. To turn them back on right click anywhere on that dark gray band. In the pop-up menu enable Layout/Model (near the very top of the list). That should do it.
