Rearranging the interface

By default, when launching MotionBuilder all windows are in a docked position, but you can rearrange the interface by docking and undocking UI elements.

Docking and undocking

To undock a window:

Drag the double-dotted edge () of a window away from its current place and into the middle of the scene.
When you release the mouse button, the undocked window is left hovering on the interface.

To dock a window:

Drag the double-dotted edge () of a window around the UI. Any place where it can be docked automatically shifts to accommodate it as you drag the window across it.
When you release the mouse button, the window locks into place.

NoteIf UI elements do not immediately shift out of the way for you to dock a window, try moving the window to various places around your attempted dock point. Dock widgets need to be released near the middle of a dockable area.

Docking behavior

The following lists the docking behavior:

The Viewer window is always docked.
The Transport Controls window can only be docked directly under the Viewer.
No tool can be docked above the Viewer.
When called, locked windows will have a new floating window created. If the original is floating when called, the focus will move to the floating window.
Tabs within windows will float or re-dock as complete windows.
