**When spending hours in PandaSuite Studio, a few wisely chosen settings can make a difference: increased visibility when working on a small screen, precise markers for pixel-perfect design, tab management...**

In this article, we review the most useful tips to customize the PandaSuite Studio interface to your liking.

## Adjust the zoom of the creation area

| Action        | Method                                           | Tip                                                           |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Zoom in / out | `Space + mouse wheel` or `Pinch` (trackpad)      | Hold `Space` to temporarily disable snapping and move freely. |
| Fit to screen | **100 %** icon (toolbar)                         | Useful before taking a screenshot.                            |
| Precise value | Numeric field to the right of the **100 %** icon | Type *150* to display at 150%, *50* for 50%, etc.             |

> On a 13", you often juggle between multiple zoom levels. Use `Space + mouse
>   wheel` to zoom, then release `Space` and hold `⌘` (Mac) or `Ctrl` (Win) to pan
> the view without changing the selection.

## Display and customize the grid

To activate the grid, click **Zoom** ▸ **Show grid**.

Open the **Grid Settings** to adjust:

- **Blocks width** and **Blocks height**
- **Blocks number**, per column and per line
- **Color 1**, **Color 2** and **Opacity** (for a visible yet discreet grid)

Enable **Snap to grid** so that objects automatically align to the grid.

> **Info**
>
> You can display the grid without enabling snapping (or vice versa). Disable
> snapping if you're working on pixel-perfect elements that shouldn't align by
> default.

## Change the language of your editor

PandaSuite Studio is available in French and English. The interface language has **no impact** on the languages of your project: it's simply the display language of menus, tooltips, and panels.

To change the language, go to the home screen of PandaSuite Studio and click your name at the bottom left.

Hover over **Language**, then choose **Français** or **English**.

## Organize your tabs

PandaSuite Studio operates with **modular panels**.

You can customize their display to meet your needs.

### Group screens and objects

By default, **Screens** (list of screens) and **Objects** (local hierarchy) are displayed together. You can separate them for better visibility.

Disable **Group Screens and Objects** in the **Zoom** menu.

### Enable tabbed display

If you're working on a **large screen** (24″ or more), it may be useful to display **Objects, Properties, and Actions** side by side rather than stacked.

Disable **Use Tabs** in the **Zoom** menu.

You'll get a "super-panel" space formed of 2 columns.

### Save your workspace

PandaSuite automatically remembers the position of the panels. Preferences are stored on the computer side, allowing you to:

- Work comfortably on a 27″ iMac,
- Resume the same project on a MacBook: your panels adjust without losing the main organization.

> If you have a second screen, use the share link on that other screen: you can
> view your actions in real time without hiding the creation area.
