Hide Toolbars and Panes

You can increase the work area in WorkStation by hiding some or all of the toolbars and panes. Most functions can still be reached using the right-click method. All toolbars and panes that are hidden can be displayed again at any time.

In this example, the System Tree pane, Address bar, Basic toolbar, and Main menu are hidden.

Full Screen Mode

To further increase the Work area you can use Full screen mode. This function maximizes the window in focus to fill the whole screen. This is a good function to use, for example, when you work in large graphics with lots of information.
