Moving a tab panel
You cannot move a panel from one tab to another, however. If you attempt
to drop a panel onto another tab, it returns to its original location on its
original tab.
You can remove panels from a tab and place them in another location on
your screen. You can dock floating panels together by dragging one panel
over the other, and you can move the docked panels as a group by clicking
and dragging the gray grip that appears when you hover your mouse pointer
over a floating panel. If you use dual monitors, you can even drag a panel
to the second monitor. The panel's new position is maintained when you
restart the software, but the panel does not appear until a file is opened.
Keep in mind that moving tools to another screen may actually hinder your
workflow, your efficiency, and possibly the stability of the program itself.
Back to Normal
You can return a floating panel to its default location by clicking the
small icon in the upper-right corner of the panel.
If you want to return the entire ribbon interface to its default settings,
you can do so by browsing to
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\Revit\Autodesk
Revit 2015
, deleting the
UIState.dat
file, and then reopening the
application. Deleting this file also removes any customization done to
the Quick Access toolbar.
