Collapsing and expanding the Navigator

To provide more space for workspace views, you can hide the Navigator, then restore it when you want to see it. You can also can save the workspace with the Navigator minimized.

Procedure

  • To collapse the Navigator view, click the Collapse Navigator view Collapse bar on the right border. (You can also drag the right border if you prefer to manually adjust the Navigator width.)
    The adjacent workspace views expand to fill the gap and the status bar shows the Navigator view icon and name in the right-most section.
  • To restore the Navigator view, either click the Expand Navigator view Expand bar on the left border or click Navigator view <Navigator name> in the status bar. There is an additional option to open a different Navigator view instead of restoring the original by right-clicking Navigator view <Navigator name> to see and select from a list of available Navigator views.
