This layout is useful for changing and checking on objects during run-time, as you get to see both
views at the same time. Its tall vertical views or panels make it easier to access large numbers of
assets in the Hierarchy view without resorting to the Search feature. Its main drawback is that the
Project view's Two Column Layout does not lend itself to a tall vertical column very well. This is when
the Single Column layout is useful.

Right-click over the Project tab, and select the Single Column Layout.

layouts in the Layout drop-down menu.
