To increase the available drawing area, palettes and detached tabs that are not docked can be minimized while not in use, and then maximized when needed.
On Mac, click the plus/minus sign in the title bar to toggle between minimized (“-”) and maximized (“+”) display.
On Windows, click the palette’s pin icon in the title bar to toggle between minimized (horizontal pin icon) and maximized (vertical pin icon) display.
Move the cursor over a minimized title bar to temporarily maximize the palette; move the cursor off the palette to minimize it again. On Mac, to enable this feature, select Window > Palette Options > Auto-Hide Floating Palettes.
