Hi, Is it possible to sort the open drawing tabs in ACAD. Is it accessible by LISP? Note: I'm not referring to layout tabs. Thanks.

Hi, I'm experimenting using AutoCAD without the classic 'Display Layout and Model tabs' being active and using 'Quick View' previews instead, however, it's not working quite like I remember a few years ago when I first encountered the ribbon. What I want, if possible, is for the drawing previews to be minimised somewhere near the bottom of the screen and for their layouts to be highlighted (or slightly enlarged) ready for selection when I hover my mouse over them. This does not seem to be an option and instead I have to click the 'Quick View' icons in the status bar to achieve this. There is an option to pin them, but this keeps them constantly open and obstructs a lot of the drawing area. If I hover over the open drawing tabs under the ribbon then the layouts for that particular drawing do enlarge ready for selection, but they [EDIT: don't] show a right click menu. I've looked in the options / searched the forum but found nothing that helps and my help files seem to be disabled or non existant. So, is there a way to get what I want and how I first remember the previews?
