How to restore default view of IDE?

[sergey-chepurin]

Is it possible to restore default view of IDE, the one with code pane, explorer pane and output pane at the bottom all docked and fixed in their place? Searched but could not find an easy way.

Hi,

Perspective > Restore Default Layout.

Thank you so much, David! Just migrated from VC++ and got lost in many other things (such as programming, for example:). But "restore default layout" is one of the most important options that i can't live without.

Really? I avoid it as much as I can as it's not my preferred layout.

In case you don't realise, you can create different perspectives by setting them up, then Perspectives > Save Current Layout As...
For example I have a 'Debug' layout with (as well as the obvious things) different toolbars and the Output View hidden. You could also save the default layout by a different name e.g. 'Normal'.
