I recently noticed that having a large number of parts, assemblies, drawings, etc. open makes it almost impossible to get anything done. Even having just an assembly and 1-3 parts open is a huge pain, as the files minimize in the graphics area to be small and only part of the name shows, and they move around a lot, so I can never tell which file is which until maximized.

Is there a way to have parts show up in a bar or area separate from the rest of the viewing area so that I can see them all at once, and maybe show more of their names? Or is that kind of functionality reserved to every single other piece of software in the industry?
