How do you retrieve the tools panels and other menu bars when you get rid of them? i accidentally clicked on something that took my tool bar away, and i got carried away with the experiment and minimized all my menus and panels to leave just the workspace. very nice to see my model so big on screen, but i dont know how to get all my menus back!!!!

This is one way, you can also set this up in the prefs.

No problem user added image

. Also, if you've hidden absolutely everything, including the main menu (File, Edit, Modify, Display, Windows ect) you can still access those from the hotbox (hold down the space key).

you can also turn menus off and on using hotkeys.

shift + m to toggle the main menu.

ctrl + m to toggle the viewport menu.

ctrl + space to toggle shelves.
