Puzzlement over workspace layout PC/MAC?

hi guys,

i’m trying to organise my workspace to be able to let my work flow more efficiently, and i’ve seen in the tutorials on gotoandlearn.com that the workspace of the person who does the tuts look very different than mine (refer to the advanced flash preloader tut on the site).

basically he has actions and properties and the stage in one window.
if he clicks on the actions tab and it would scale up to reveal the actions options and if he would click on the close box of the actions window it would scale down and reveal more of the stage. :love:

i very much would like to activate this feature, as it would save me a lot of clicks.

where can i activate it?
or is it because he is on PC and i am on a MAC, which leaves me with at least three windows floating around: stage/timeline, tools and any group of windows i choose to view?

is just annoying: if i group properties and e.g. actions together and place the window at the bottom of the screen click on the actions close box the whole window would scale upward to reveal its contents, but if i click the closebox again, or properties it would scale up and stay there covering my timeline and stage.

ideas are greatly appreciated. :thumb2: this is driving me nuts. :m:

cheers,
