While at rst glance InDesign may
appear to be very dierent from
Quark XPress, many of the features
are actually similar. Take a moment
to get acquainted with the location
of panels, menus, and controls in
the document window below.
Here are some tips for managing
the panels you’ll be working with:
Document window
Workspaces remember the loca-
tion of each panel onscreen,
including whether it’s visible or
hidden. You can choose among
preset workspaces from the
Workspace menu on the Applica-
tion Bar, or create your own.
You can dock a panel to the edge
of your screen by dragging its tab
to the le or right edge.
When the insertion point is not
blinking, press Tab to show/hide
all panels, or Shi+Tab to show/
hide all panels except the Tools
panel and the Control panel.
Drag the le edge of the dock to
expand or collapse a stack of
panels and display icons. When
you widen a stack, icons and
labels are displayed.
