Description

Quarto / Publishing layout
Has multiple modes

  • Primary Side Bar can be left open, if there is room

Author mode (just like source developer mode):

  • Editor is center
  • Panel in bottom center is showing, with Console tab
  • Secondary Side Bar shows Workspace by default, with Environment showing, and Plots collapsed.

Render mode:

  • Editor is center, but only taking 50% of the width.
  • Panel stays where it is bottom center
  • Secondary Side Bar now takes approximately 50% of width, with Preview tab showing instead.
