Moving and resizing panes and views – PB Docs 2021

Moving and resizing panes and views

You can move a pane or a view to any location in the painter
window. You might find it takes a while to get used to moving panes
and views around, but if you do not like a layout, you can always
revert to the default layout and start again. To restore the default
layout, select View>Layouts>Default.

To move a pane, select and drag the title bar of the view that
is at the top of the stack. If the pane contains stacked views, all
views in the stack move together. To move one of the views out of
the stack, drag the tab for the view you want to move.

To move a pane

  1. Place the pointer anywhere on the title bar of the view at
    the top of the stack, hold down the left mouse button, and start
    moving the pane.

    A gray outline appears around the pane:

  2. Drag the outline to the new location.

    The outline changes size as you drag it. When the pointer
    is over the middle of a pane, the outline fills the pane. As you
    drag the pointer toward any border, the outline becomes a narrow
    rectangle adjacent to that border. When the pointer is over a
    splitter bar between two panes, rows, or columns, the outline
    straddles the splitter bar:

    When you move the pointer to a corner

    When you move the pointer to a corner, you will find
    that you have many places where you can drop the outline. To
    see your options, move the pointer around in all directions in
    the corner and see where the outline displays as you move
    it.

  3. Release the mouse button to drop the outline in the new
    location:

    Drop the outline here

    Between two panes

    On the splitter bar between the
    panes

    Between a border and a pane

    At the side of the pane nearest the
    border

    Into a new row

    On the splitter bar between two rows or at
    the top or bottom of the painter window

    Into a new column

    On the splitter bar between two columns or
    at the left or right edge of the painter
    window

    Onto a stack of panes

    On the middle of the pane (if the pane was
    not already tabbed, tabs are created)

To move a view in a stacked pane

  • Place the pointer anywhere on the view’s tab, hold down
    the left mouse button, and start moving the view.

    You can now move the view as in the previous procedure. If
    you want to rearrange the views in a pane, you can drag the view
    to the left or right within the same pane.

To resize a pane

  • Drag the splitter bars between panes.
