Panels >Arrange Views Needs Clarification IMHO



  • Several times I have been confused into thinking the Panels>Arrange Views is referring to the tool panels instead of the artboard panels. Is there a way we can change the wording some or give it a subcategory called "Artboard Views" Whatever we do (if anything) to clarify this for easily confused people like myself, the future addition of tool panel layout must be also considered. I know tool and feature panel arrangement options are in the backlog for a future time. (being able to set the tool panels in a saved arrangement and go back later and reset them into that same arrangement/clear all non-saved panels from the UI, etc. )

    Could that also eventually go under the "Panels" menu with applicable options in a similar format to the current "arrange views>___" options?
    If there is the added function of saving your own preferences for tool panel display arrangements - would that work there as well? or is that more a preferences folder thing?

  • UPDATE: There's also the panel options under the main VS menu to consider. Perhaps a suggestion to update the name under the Panels menu to clarify it's for artboards there and then add the other future option to a category under the main VS menu? There's already a "workspaces" section, would that be applicable for this?

    On a side note, the current panels options listed here, under the VS main menu are confusing as well since "reset panels" is not instant and obvious
