When you move window panes, explorers, or editors around in the Mimic interface, the configuration (or "layout") of the workspace is changed. You can do several things with layouts, including the following.

How to Save a Window Layout
You can save different layouts of the interface, in case you want to use them for different purposes.
- Configure the workspace how you want it.
- Select Window > Save Layout > Save Window Layout As.
- In the Save Window Layout dialog, enter a name for the layout.
- Click OK.
How to Auto-Save a Window Layout
You can automatically save the layout of the workspace when you exit Mimic. The next time you launch Mimic, that same layout will be displayed.
Select Window > Auto-save Layout.
How to Select a Saved Window Layout
You can quickly change the configuration of your workspace by selecting a window layout that you have saved previously.
Select Window > Layout > [Name of Layout].
How to Reset the Window Layout
You can return the workspace configuration to the original layout that you saw when you first installed and launched Mimic.
Select Window > Reset Layout.
How to Reload the Window Layout
You can return the workspace to the saved configuration of the layout. In other words, if you are working in a particular layout and have opened different interface elements or moved interface elements around, you can select this option to go back to the saved configuration.
Select Window > Reload Layout.
Note Resetting a layout returns the interface to the way it was when you opened Mimic for the first time. Reloading a layout means returning the interface to your last saved layout.
How to Delete a Window Layout
You can open the Manage Window Layouts dialog, which lets you select or delete an existing layout.
- Select Window > Layout > Layouts.
- Select the layout that you want to delete.
- Click Delete.
- Confirm the deletion by clicking OK.
- Click Close.
