Workspaces and panels
Adobe video and audio applications provide a consistent, customizable user interface. Although each application has its own set of panels, you
move and group panels in the same way in each application.
The main window of a program is the application window. Panels are organized in this window in an arrangement called a workspace.
Each application includes several predefined workspaces that optimize the layout of panels for specific tasks. You can also create and customize
your own workspaces by arranging panels in the layout that best suits your working style for specific tasks.
You can drag panels to new locations, move panels into or out of a group, place panels alongside each other, and undock a panel so that it floats
in a new window above the application window. As you rearrange panels, the other panels resize automatically to fit the window.
Example workspace
A. Application window B. Grouped panels C. Individual panel
To increase the available screen space, use multiple monitors. When you work with multiple monitors, the application window appears on the main
monitor, and you place floating windows on the second monitor. Monitor configurations are stored in the workspace.
Workspaces are stored in XML files in the preferences folder. With some caveats regarding monitor size and layout, these workspaces can be
moved to another computer and used there.
