All the <oXygen/> views available in the Editor Perspective are dockable. You can drag them to any margin of another view or editor inside the <oXygen/> window to form any desired layout. Also a view can be set to a floating state to enable it to hover over other views and editors.
For gaining more editing space in the <oXygen/> window you should set one or more views to the auto hide state: only the title will remain always visible, attached to one of the margins of the <oXygen/> window, the rest of the view will be restored only by the mouse pointer hovering over the title or clicking the title. The view will become hidden again when the mouse pointer goes out of the screen area covered by that view.
The editing area can be divided vertically in several editing panels by dragging the
title of an editor inside the editing area and dropping it when the frame of the dragged
editor is painted in the desired position. In the following figure you can see how to
unsplit the editing area by dragging the title of the personal.xml
editor panel over personal-schema.xml until the drop frame painted in dark grey covers all
the personal-schema.xml
editor panel and then dropping it.
All the opened editors can be tiled horizontally/vertically or stacked together using actions from
menu : When several tiled editors exist, and action (from the same menu) is enabled, when scrolling inside one editor all other editors will also scroll.Also the editing area can be divided vertically and horizontally with the split / unsplit actions available on the Split toolbar and the
menu:The editor can be maximized or restored(same action as double click on the editor tab) by using the
action from the menu.Any <oXygen/> view or toolbar can be opened at any time from the menu items available in the menus
