I don't remember now a way to Visual Studio to open more than one solutions in the same Visual Studio instance.. Just opening more than one instances that is like the separate MonoDevelop trick.

Miguel, the multiple solutions in one workspace mode is not a satisfying user experience for me. It is slower to jump around in the solution explorer (more scrolling to get to the solution of interest). I also prefer my files(tabs) for solution #1 in one window and for solution #2 in another window. Mixing them slows me down. Finally, I often need to quit MD to fix some glitch. I'd rather just "lose" the one solution than have to go re-open a bunch of other solutions too. I am using the launch separate MonoDevelop process trick now, so I am content as this is working fine. But I think newbies would prefer the Open dialog be improved on, adding the option to open the selected solution in new window: > Combo box: > [ Close current solution ] > [ Open selected solution in new window ] > [ Open select solution in current workspace ] Cheers, -Mike From: Miguel de Icaza <[email protected]> Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2011 23:15:52 -0400 To: Brian Newton <[email protected]> Cc: Michael Muegel <[email protected]>, <[email protected]>, competent_tech <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [MonoTouch] Do the makers of Monodevelop actually test the application?

But yep, I'll give Jason's > terminal hack a try in the meantime. To do this, open your first solution, then select File/Open. Select the solution file you want, say "Second.sln" and make sure you uncheck the "Close current workspace" checkbox. That will open the two solutions in the same instance of MonoDevelop.
