Open more than one file at a time.

I think it would be great if you could open more than one file at a time in Moho. Right now, if I open another file, or create a new file, my currently open file will close (it'll ask if I want to save first, but it will close one way or the other). Sometimes I want to have two or three files open, for example, if I'm trying to learn something from an animation file, I can work on my file, and then go back and forth between files to see how something was done. Sometimes you just want to be able to compare two different scenes that will be in an animation to maintain consistency, or open a new file to create a new character or try something out before doing it in the working file. This would be a very useful thing to be able to do.

I just tried and you can have multiple instances of Moho running with different scenes in them (win. XP).

I'm runnin OSX on the Mac, and I can't seem to open Moho more than once at a time. It seems like a more efficient thing to me to be able to open multiple files rather than multiple instances of the same program.

OK, I did a little research on this and I was able to make a copy of Moho by choosing it in the finder and control-clicking on it and choosing Duplicate. That made a copy of the program and I was able to open it and then open a different file. So that works, but I see it as a workaround. I still think it's better to open multiple files in one program. Thanks for that suggestion, though; I'll use it that way for now.
