Nice approaches. So good this is not MDI, which is evil. My 5.

Solution 2

Your best bet is to use a TabControl and create a new TabPage whenever a user opens up a new document. There is a very good article here on CP on Tabbed Multiple Document Interface in WPF[^].

Hope this helps

This is what I repeat all the time. This is the simplest UI style, robust enough, no hassles of multiple windows (forget about MDI). My 5.
