How do I edit my layout in TWS?

To rearrange, add or remove windows, or to re-size individual components, click the Lock icon to unlock the workspace:

  • When the Mosaic layout is unlocked, the workspace is outlined in green and the lock icon appears open
  • When unlocked, windows within the workspace frame act as separate, ungrouped windows, and you are able to remove them, resize them, and add new windows to the layout frame. 

You can use the Layout Library to quickly create a custom workspace layout:

  1. Click the Add Tab "+" icon at the end of the tabset along the bottom of the frame
  2. Click Browse under Layout Library
  3. Browse layouts and click Details to find out more about any layout
  4. Click Add Layout to add a layout as a new, named tab along the bottom of TWS
  5. You can toggle between layouts by clicking the tabs.

You can find information on Mosaic editing modes and custom layouts in our Users' Guide. Information on the TWS layout library can also be found on our website.
