MATLAB Tips and Tricks: Dock and Undock for Editor | Workspace | Current Folder | Command Window

Today, I want to share tips and tricks to dock and undock workspace, current folder, and command window in MATLAB. These tips and tricks should work for some problem such as:

• Command window or current folder or workspace disappeared.
• Command window or current folder or workspace undock or open in a separate window.
• The new script (editor) keeps opening in a new window.
• Return all layout to its original position.

Example 1: Undock (Editor, Workspace, Command Window and Current Folder)

1. Click the down arrow icon in the title bar.
   
2. Then select the "Undock" option or shortcut key: ctrl+shift+U.
3. You will see the command window separate from the MATLAB window: repeat steps 1 and 2 to undock workspace, editor, and current folder.

Example 2: Dock (Editor, Workspace, Command Window and Current Folder)

1. Click the down arrow icon in the title bar.
   
2. Then select the "Dock" option or shortcut key: ctrl+shift+D.
3. You will see the command window return to its original place: repeat steps 1 and 2 to undock workspace, editor, and current folder.

Example 3: Undock All Layout

1. Go to the "HOME" tab in the MATLAB toolstrip, click "Layout" and select "Default".
   
2. All layout restore to the original position.

That all from me. If you have any suggestions, please write in the comment section. Thank you for your time 👷.
