How to hide the UI panels

Once you become a power-user, you'll love hiding as much as possible of the app chrome and just having your canvas front and center.

There are 3 keyboard shortcuts you should learn to do this:

  • CTRL/⌘+L - hides and shows the UI Library - once it's hidden, use / to send focus to Quick add instead.
  • CTRL/⌘+J - hides the left navigator panel - once it's hidden, there's a little menu up top to navigate between wireframes.
  • CTRL/⌘+; - hides the right-side panel - this is the one you'll be using the most. Select something, CTRL/⌘+; to show the inspector and tweak some values, and CTRL/⌘+; again to hide it back.
