You can drag and drop client components to arrange them in the following ways:

  • Drag the title bar (or tab) of any view to a different position within the client window.
  • Drag any view or editor outside the client window.
  • Drag any view to the shortcut bar for a Fast View.
  • Drag the shortcut bar to dock on the right, left, or bottom of the client window.
  • Resize any view or editor by dragging the split bar up, down, or sideways.
  • Drag any view to a vertical or horizontal position in the client window.
Views Views have a minimize and maximize button. Click Maximize to fill the client window. Click Minimize for the view to appear as a tab in the lower right section of the editor. You can hide a view if you right-click and choose Fast View.
