Is it possible to increase the number of shown open drawings under the Windows menu? Mine currently only shows 9 drawings and a "more windows...". The problem is that when I open the "more windows", there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to which drawing is highlited, and what order they are in. I would much rather just see all available open drawings under the windows menu.

I've spent a considerable amount of time searching the internet and have come up bust.

A couple of keywords that might hold some hint are: SDI, MDI

These don't directly address your question, but may be an alternative for you.

as far as I know the maximum number is only 9. try opening more versions of cad. You will have to go back and forth between sessions but you will see all the drawings.
