# Workbench window layout

You can rearrange the layout of Workbench windows as follows:

- Drag views to different positions within the Workbench window.
- Drag views to the shortcut bar to create a fast view.
- Drag editors such that they are simultaneously visible beside, above, or below another editor.
- Resize views and editors by dragging the sashes which separate them.

## Drop cursors

Drop cursors indicate where a view will dock when you release your mouse button. This indication is relative to the view or editor area underneath the cursor.

Drop Cursors
Cursor | Name | Description
--- | --- | ---
| Dock above | The view will appear above the view underneath the cursor.
| Dock below | The view will appear below the view underneath the cursor.
| Dock to the right | The view will appear to the right of the view underneath the cursor.
| Dock to the left | The view will appear to the left of the view underneath the cursor.
| Stack | The view will appear as a tab in the same pane as the view underneath the cursor.

## Fast views

From a view's title bar context menu, you can select Fast View to minimize the view as a button on the shortcut bar.

If a view is minimized in this way, you can click its button on the shortcut bar to bring it up in a fast view. To revert the fast view back to a docked view again, select the Fast View button on its title bar.

See Perspective Bar

## Double-Click

Double-clicking a view or editor's title bar maximizes the part in the Workbench window.

## Title bar context menu and fast view toolbars

From the context menu of a view or editor's title bar, you can select how you want the view to appear within the Workbench window.
