Switched from Mac to PC

With Mac it was always easy to have a plan view, a 3D view & a section open at the same time. Now that I have switched from Mac to PC I can't figure out how to have the 3 views open simultaneously. Is it possible on a PC? Thanks n advance!

Thanks. I just figured that out. Going from MAC to Windows is fraught with danger!

Thanks for updating your signature, Jack. I just assumed that since you switched to PC that you switched to a new PC with Windows 10... Do note that officially, ARCHICAD 21 is considered 'compatible but not tested' on Windows 7.

The last officially fully compatible Windows 7 version of ARCHICAD was version 19:

I've not seen any (?) discussion here of people having issues with Win 7 and AC 21 ... but just be aware that it is possible that you may run into something. Good luck with the transition.

Thank you Karl. I'm going from ArchiCAD 17 on Mac to ArchiCAD 21 on Windows 7 PC. Working a new job in a ten person office, all using AutoCAD on Windows 7.Most of the drafters want to learn Revit. If I can impress them with ArchiCAD I might win some converts. Bosses mostly interested in creating 3D renderings of proposed projects. Wish me luck!
