# Customize your workspace layout

> Arrange the windows in the Editor to create a personalized workspace.

The Unity Editor manages its interface as a collection of tabs. You can customize the layout of the tabs, save layouts, and choose between built-in layouts.

## Manage tabs

Any window you add from the main menu opens as a new tab.

You can also right-click a tab's name to:

* Maximise the tab.
* Close the tab.
* Add tabs.
* Manage overlays. For more information, refer to [Overlays](/engine/6000.3/manual/working-with-scenes/scenes-manage-gameobjects/overlays.md).

## Move tabs in the main Editor window

To change the tab layouts, you can select a built-in layout from the **Layout** menu, or move the tabs yourself.

To move a tab, drag its title to a new location. When you hover your tab over a location, the Editor shows its outline.

## Move tabs to floating Editor windows

You can break the Unity Editor into floating windows. Each floating window can have multiple tabs.

In this example, a floating window has two **Search** tabs:

## Save and restore tab layouts

To manage layouts, select an option from the **Layout** menu.

| ------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Save Layout**           | Save your changes to a layout. You can overwrite a built-in layout, or enter a new name to save a custom layout. If you create a custom layout, its name is added to the layouts list in the menu. |
| **Save layout to file**   | Save your layout to a file you can use in other projects.                                                                                                                                          |
| **Load layout from file** | Load a layout from a file you saved.                                                                                                                                                               |
| **Delete Layout**         | Delete a built-in or a custom layout.                                                                                                                                                              |
| **Reset all Layouts**     | Return all layouts to their built-in configurations and override any changes you made.                                                                                                             |
