To make more room to work, temporarily hide the floating palettes by pressing the Tab key (with any tool active other than a Type tool). The Tab key acts like a toggle switch, so to show the palettes again, press Tab again. The only problem is that the Toolbox disappears too, so if you want to keep the Toolbox and hide the rest of the palettes, press Shift-Tab. As before, press the same shortcut to show the palettes again. (This is a better method than the alternative, which is spending all your time dragging palettes around to get them out of the way.) |
