FCP - 2 Screen layout

I've used FCP for about 10 years. On my two previous MBP's I've always used two screens as in the two screen grabs below. HOWEVER, on my brand new M3 MBP and the latest software , I can't get the editing screen to go all the way across the bottom. The 'Inspector Screen' goes right to the bottom. Can't seem to find anywhere to get it back to the way I've always used. I like to have the full 'restate' at the bottom for this.


My YouTube Channel where I put all the recordings/videos I've done over the last number of years.

Excited to use my new M3, but totally frustrated about not being able to see the full editing screen.

Thanks in advance, for any guidance.

Good day

As Tom said, besides double-clicking on the inspector frame, the only way to restore it to default is ⌘0. Save your favorite layout as a preset. It is useful to create two presets, one for cut editing and one for color adjustment.
