There should be an autohide option for the Project Browser.
The project browser should be on top of the drawing window and not resize the windows when it is turned back on. A transparent setting would help with visibility.

It would also be benificial if there was a professional mode such that AutoCad has in order to maximize the drawing window space. I find myself constantly turning the Project browser on/off to make the work area larger.

An option to move the toolbars around or autohide them wouldnt hurt either.

The fact that Revit doesn't remember certain settings from session to session is a bit of a pain but you can set up a keyboard shortcut to make it a quick task.

I have a shortcut for it its just a pain the when you turn it on it resizes any tiled windows. Then when you turn it off it does not size them back...

I used a product years ago for AutoCAD called AutoShrink, it would roll up dialog boxes (before Autodesk put it into the product). I tried it the other day for Revit and it didn't work. I have a question into the developer and I'll update when I hear back from them.

Thomas,

That sounds very interesting, I wonder how it will affect the view/windows..

Can it be that hard to make the toolbars moveable and the browser autohide-capable? It works great as a space saver in AutoCAD.
