<![CDATA[How to move the position of the console tab?]]>I know there are custom workspaces and Layout Mode, but I don't really understand how they work.
There is a David Healey video on customising your workspace, but it is a bit out of date.

I know I can add more tabs and separators with Layout Mode, and I can view a Custom Workspace, but both of those are in addition to the already existing tabs.
I'd like to have my code console in a vertical tab instead of a horizontal one, but keep my code editor as a horizontal.

How would I do that?

The basic layout controls are the same though.

@observantsound said in How to move the position of the console tab?:

When I do Show Custom Workspace, then it appears instead of the UI editor. But Code Editor and Module Tree tabs are still there.

The custom workspace always shows at the right side of the screen. You need to readd the interface designer and anything else you want.

Here's mine which you can load up using the Load from JSON option

The vertical console is in a tab.

I stopped at 02:35 in your video. You made a custom workspace that spans the entire range of the UI. I don't know how to do that.
When I do Show Custom Workspace, then it appears instead of the UI editor. But Code Editor and Module Tree tabs are still there.

but it is a bit out of date.

In what way?

@observantsound said in How to move the position of the console tab?:

I'd like to have my code console in a vertical tab instead of a horizontal one, but keep my code editor as a horizontal.

Custom workspace of a floating window is the way to go.
