Tiled Windows

I am not sure if this in the right forum for this but I really dont know where else it would go... Anyway, does anyone know if there is a way to 'tile' windows so that I can have a floor plan / 3d view up at the same time - or a floor plan and a section and elevation? I know I can rearrange the windows and manually resize them - but this seems a little tedious for something that should be automatic. I am assuming its possible and I'm just not looking in the right places...

unfortunately chadwick, it's not . . . you'll have to manually resize them i'm afraid. they should at least snap themselves together. but since there is no true automatic update/refresh across all windows (some do, most don't) i've never really seen any value in having 2 or 4 up . . .

you know, I kind of thought of this right after I posted the question. Well, I suppose there are 2 wishes for me that ArchiCAD will add in the future. I guess I was just used to working in that other BIM program...
