You have numerous options for customizing Dreamweaver. Later in this chapter, you learn
how to move the panels and toolbars, dock or float the panels, hide, show, or resize panels,
and more. Chapter 4 systematically covers many additional customization options, referred to within
Dreamweaver as preferences.
The third option, Dual Screen, is useful if you have two monitors for the same computer. When invoked,
the Dual Screen layout undocks all the major components (Property inspector, panel groups, and Code
inspector) so that they can be positioned exactly how you like.
All customized layouts can be saved for later retrieval. Once you??™ve set up the desired layout, you can
choose Window ??? Workspace Layout ??? Save Current to store your customized environment. When you
opt to save your current layout, a dialog box appears for you to name your layout; after confirming your
choice by clicking OK, your new layout option is displayed in the Workspace Layout submenu. Select
Window ??? Workspace Layout ??? Manage to delete or rename your custom layouts.
If you aren??™t sure which workspace works best for you, don??™t worry; you aren??™t committed to
your initial choice. You can alter your workspace at any time. TIP TIP
