Does anyone use a special screen layout for their viacad sessions? Would you please share a screenshot? I am especially interested in speeding up my Viacad experience. I saw this one the other day...

That was my layout.
Apart from being lucky enough to have a 22 inch wide screen, using the small size icon option gave this magnificent working space even with everything pulled out.
I find it very usefull to have like this in my early learning stages.

this is my first attempt at a custom screenlayout. I only have 17" to work with. I find that though it speeds things up, I lose too much screen real estate to the toolbars and panels.

You may also want to look at using the "Collapse to Top" option. The window automatically opens and closes when your mouse goes over the title bar(open) or out of the dialog box (close), saving screen space except when needed. This is the popup that appears when you right click on a title bar. I find it very useful for the larger windows such as Concepts Explorer & Object Info.
