There are two ways to close a palette that isn't needed. In this example, I will continue using the Information palette, because it's actually not a palette that I need to use and so I usually keep it closed anyway! Follow these simple steps to close a palette:
- Follow the preceding instructions for moving a palette, and making sure to pop out the palette, as shown in step 6.
- Click on the X button in the upper-right-hand corner of the palette to close it.
- To bring a palette back once it's been closed, simply go to Window in the File menu. Click on the name of the palette to show it again. Alternately, the Window menu can also be used to close palettes by clicking on the names with check marks next to them.
