A workspace layout (also known as "palette arrangement") displays, hides, and positions workspace elements such as palettes and panels to suit a specific workflow. Corel Painter 2020 offers the following preset workspace layouts:
• |
New to Painter — Displays the most essential controls together with the Hints panel to help you get started quickly with Corel Painter |
• |
Classic — Ideal for users who have experience with previous versions of Corel Painter and are looking for a seamless transition to a familiar environment |
• |
Simple — Displays minimal user interface that includes the toolbox, the menu bar, and the property bar. This layout is ideal for small screens. |
• |
Concept Art — Provides quick access to gradients, texture painting controls and Glazing brushes. Brush and media palettes are logically grouped in palette drawers to save screen space. |
• |

The Quick Switch feature lets you choose two workspace layouts that you use most often and quickly switch between them to suit the current task or the display mode of your device. This feature is especially useful on multi- or dual-mode devices. For example, you can select Default as Layout 1 and Simple as Layout 2. When you flip the display panel from Notebook to Tablet mode, the Simple workspace layout is automatically displayed, letting you work in an un-cluttered minimalistic user interface.
