You can save the current sizes and positions of panels and any menu changes as a custom workspace. The names of
workspaces appear in a Workspace submenu of the Window menu. You can edit the list of names by adding or
deleting a workspace.

•
To save the current workspace, choose Window > Workspace > Save Workspace. Type a name for the new
workspace, indicate whether you want to include panel locations and customized menus as part of the saved
workspace, and click OK.
•
To display a custom workspace, choose it from the Window > Workspace submenu.
•
To delete a custom workspace, choose Window > Workspace > Delete Workspace. Select a workspace to delete
and click Delete.
