Customized Layouts

You can create the application layout that is most convenient for you by repositioning panels (e.g., the Navigation Map, Project Tree, Error/Message Log, or any of the TerraExplorer Tools) on the screen.

To reposition a panel:

1.     Click the panel's title bar and drag the panel from its current location. A guide diamond with four arrows appears.

2.     If you want the panel to float in front of the other application panels, drag it to the desired location.

3.     If you want to dock the panel, do the following:

a.     Drag the panel towards the location where you want to dock it, and then rest the cursor on the guide diamond arrow that best corresponds to the desired docking location. A shaded blue outline of the panel appears in the area where the panel will dock.

b.     Release the mouse button to dock the panel in the area indicated.

Note:    All TerraExplorer Tools initially open in the same location - at the bottom, left side of the screen. When multiple tools are opened simultaneously, a tab displays for each tool on the bottom of the tool window. If you want to move one of these tools to a different screen location, click the tool’s tab and drag it, as described in the steps above.
