SmartDraw makes it easy to minimize the UI around your workspace, so you can maximize the space to work.
Toggle the SmartPanel
You can toggle the visibility of the SmartPanel to the left of your workspace by clicking on the arrow in the upper left corner of the SmartPanel, at the very top of the left bar.
This will move the SmartPanel out of your way, leaving only the left bar behind.
If you want to bring back the SmartPanel, click on the right arrow in the left bar.
Minimize the Toolbar
Normally, the toolbar above your workspace looks like a series of icons with words underneath each one.
You can toggle to a more minimal look by checking the Collapse Main Toolbar option under the Options tab.
The menu will toggle to a modern, minimal look that uses only icons, no words. You can hover your cursor over any icon to reveal a tool-tip name.
