Docking and Floating Panels

All the panels in CrazyTalk Animator, such as Tool Bars, Content Manager and Scene Manager and Timeline can be docked or undocked. By docking the panels, you can quickly access the tools or templates without having to hover the mouse too far; while by undocking the panels, you can get a wider and clearer working area for better viewing custom projects. You may double-click the panel zone to dock or to float a panel.

Panels Docked

After the panels are docked, the tools on the Tool Bars, the templates in the Content Manager, the objects in the Scene Manager and the features in the Timeline can be easily accessed.

Panels Undocked

When the panels are undocked, they float above the main program and the working area enlarges to present a better view. You may then move the panels elsewhere to prevent from hindering the working area. If you are using dual-display environments, then you may move the panels to one display while keeping the main program on the other.
