    Default Ability to open more than one drawing from the PN

    Hi,

    In the open dialog box you can select several drawings and open all of them.

    I would like this ability for the project navigator - so I could select several constructs or view or sheets and open all of them in one go.

    Kevin.

    So add to this I would also like the ability to open constructs / sheets / views from the PN read only.

    This was added to the 2009 release, if I am remembering things correctly.

    Hooray – obviously AutoDesk looked at my post and though ‘this guy knows what he is talking about’ and added my suggestion.

    (… well it makes me feel better to think that’s what happened!!!)

    Uhhh. Not yet, on either count, unless it's controlled by a system variable. I am still able to open PN files from File>Open menu and cannot open more than one file at a time from PN. Maybe there's still hope for 2010...<<<sigh>>>

    My remark was directed specifically at the additional request to be able to open a file read only (as indicated by the quotation from the previous post), not the original request to be able to open multiple files at once.
