Hiding and showing the Editor menus

If you want more space to work with in your Editor, you can hide the controls, menus, and tools. Hiding these features doesn't affect your element editing options, so you can continue to customize their content and design as needed.

To hide / show menus and tools in the Editor:

• Click the Hide Controls arrow at the top of the Editor.

• Click the arrow again to return to the normal Editor view.

Tip:

You can press shift + f on your keyboard to show and hide the controls.

Notes:

• Any Editor tools you have open (such as the toolbar) are also hidden when you hide the menus.
• You can still open and access the right-click menu with this feature.
