Fast views

From a view's title bar context menu, you can select Fast View to minimize the view as a button on the shortcut bar.

If a view is minimized in this way, you can click its button on the shortcut bar to bring it up in a fast view. To revert the fast view back to a docked view again, select the Fast View button on its title bar.

See Perspective Bar
