Please see the tutorial video below on Customizing your Workspace for additional support:

Minimizing and Maximizing the Materials box

  • The Materials box can be hidden by clicking on the minimizing button in the top right corner of the Materials bar (Figures 1.2.3.1 and 1.2.3.2).

  • The Materials box size can be adjusted by "grabbing" the right side of the Materials box and dragging to the desired size (Figure 1.2.3.3).

Re-arranging Project Tabs

  • Multiple projects can be open at the same time, they can be viewed in either Single Project View or Dual Project.

  • Navigate between views by clicking on the appropriate icon located at the top right of the screen (Figure 1.2.3.4).

  • Project tabs can be moved and organized. In Dual Project view, you can adjust the size of each project’s pane by moving the bar in between them (Figure 1.2.3.5).

  • Alternatively, in Single Project view, only one project is visible at a time. Navigate to each project by clicking the project tab (Figure 1.2.3.6).

Split and Expanded View

  • You can choose between two different views to visualize projects, split view or expanded view.
  • The split view shows DNA on the left pane and the circular or linear view on the right pane (Figure 1.2.3.7). Alternatively, the expanded view allows you to select one view which fills the whole screen (Figure 1.2.3.8).
