opening two files at the same time

In Archicad 9.0 the BG Archicad came in quite handy as we could open two files at the same time. What about Archicad 10 ? Do I have to copy the application???

Both the Open and New dialogs have a checkbox for 'Launch a new instance of Archicad.' You can run as many concurrently as your RAM can take.

You can also peek inside other AC files directly from the Navigator by selecting Browse from the Project Chooser, the little button in the upper left corner. This lets you see the list of views and layouts in the other file(s). If you then navigate to one of those a new instance of AC is launched and away you go.
