I used to have 10 MV windows and have closed some in the past. The toolbar gives me the option to turn them on/off, but that only affects the remaining 5. How do I get all 10 on again?
I'm on v18 and W10.

If checking all the Window boxes in the View, Toolbars dialog doesn't show all of them when View, Multiview is toggled on, they are probably off screen. I would make a backup copy of the DcadwinToolbars.gui before doing the following. With Datacad closed, open the DcadwinToolbars.gui file and delete the 10 [TBMView#] sections or just the ones you want if you know the missing windows numbers). Close and save the file and restart Datacad. The deleted multiview windows should return to their default locations near the symbol browser when toggled back on.

Thanks for the tip, Josh. It was even easier than that. All I did was locate the ones that had "visible=0" and change to visible=1".
That fixed it.

Couldn't you just go to the View/Toolbars drop down menu and check the box next to the ones that were closed?
