Specify the Behavior of Palettes
Palettes, such as Tool Set, status bar, and Reference Manager can be docked,
displayed as icons, or floated.
Settings for these and other options are often changed on a shortcut menu,
available by right-clicking the title bar of the palette.
Resize. Drag an edge of the palette to change its size. If one or more
palettes are docked, dragging one of the palettes adjusts the size of the
other docked palettes.

command line and status bar, to a set of icons that are displayed along the
left or right side of the screen. Click an icon to temporarily display the
associated palette. (PALETTEICONON command)

icons. The palettes are returned to their previous size and location.

hidden palettes with SHOWPALETTES.
