Hi Guys

I would like to open several drawings up onto one application and scroll trough them in the one application. Instead when I select the 5 or so drawings and click enter it opens 5 or so copies of the application.

Is there a setting that I can click on in windows to open the application up once?

Hi Darthshearer

I think this is more to do with the program than Windows. Try opening one file, wait for the program to finish loading, then open the remaining files. Hopefully they will appear in the same program instance.

If that doesn't work, try opening one file, then drag the remaining files into that program window. That should usually open the files without creating multiple instances of the same program.

If neither works, and you've checked the program options, then I think you're out of luck (short of finding another program which behaves like you want it to).

Kind regards

9 times out of 10, run program (e.g. word) close any open or blank documents, drag & drop bundle of files from explorer onto application.
