Best PracticesFamiliarizing Yourself with Panel Functionality and Customizing Your Workspace


At first glance, any of the Studio programs can be a bit overwhelming. In addition to the typical menus, there are panels on the left, panels on the right, and buttons, drop-downs, and boxes on every panel. The good news is that all these options are what make the Studio applications some of the most powerful on the market. The bad news is that you have to learn about every feature to take full advantage of what the programs have to offer.

Don't worry, though. The panels really aren't as intimidating as they might appear at first glance and after you get used to them, I think you'll find them to be very intuitive. The best thing you can do to get started, however, is to open each panel and familiarize yourself with the functionality that exists. Make some notes and if you don't think you'll use the panel very often, minimize it or turn it off altogether. This enables you to customize your workspace to fit your needs, but still find features located in a hidden panel should you need them.
