Just installed C 5 pro.
You can undock the properties window but I cannot see how you can undock the browser/sequencer window.
In C5 pro these two windows sit at the bottom of the screen.
I find that when doing animations it becomes a bit cumbersome in pulling the sequencer window up & down/scrolling through the objects etc & still having a large 3D window.
I have dual monitors & would like to use one monitor for the 3D workspace & the other monitor for the squencer.
Which will allow me to open the squencer right up.
But how do I undock the squencer?
Can it be done? I have not managed to work it out.

I don't know how it works because I only have one monitor but there's a 'split screen' option int he Preferences>General tab.

Tried that. Not sure what it does but still can`t undock. Thanks

Hold down the Ctrl key while clicking L mouse button (on PC) on the frame (not the window-shade widget), and drag. You can move anywhere, and resize the window in all directions.

Hold down Ctrl key & move back to dock -- if you want.

Works fine.
