Hat tip to Brad Balassaitis for this quick tip. And he didn’t even say it to me. I was watching a Notes in 9 video that Brad did and I saw something interesting about his Designer setup. Instead of the left-hand pane with navigator/outline/etc, center pane with designer and source, and a right pane with controls and data, he had the left-hand pane with navigator, outline, control panel, data source, etc and the big pane with designer and source. Duh. He eliminated the right-hand pane. I work a lot of the time on my laptop, so screen real estate is important. Combining two panes (that I always have to flip through anyway) is brilliant!
