If you want to use viewrendered3 instead of viewrendered, I have scripts that will open it in the same pane as the body editor, and you can toggle between VR3 and the body editor. I have another one that can open VR3 in the log pane instead of on a small panel under it. I'm pretty sure a small change would make them work for VR but I haven't tried it.
Otherwise, I have a script that moves the log frame from its default position under the tree to a new panel to the right of the body editor. This does the same thing as one of the old splitter menu items. I've put these scripts into buttons so they are easy to use. Actually it's easier to write dedicated little scripts now than it used to be with the old nested splitters. Mainly you have to know the names of the frames and splitters you are interested in. Edward posted a command that will list all the widgets and their names in a hierarchical view. I forget whether it's a built-in Leo command or not. My guess is that eventually a default Leo installation will have several of these little commands, once we get enough experience to know what they should be. Here's my script to swap the log frame to a position beside the body editor. It finds the splitter of interest, then finds the widget for the log frame, and inserts it into the same splitter as the body editor - that automatically puts it beside or below the body editor depending on the orientation you are using: """Move Nav frame between main and secondary splitters.""" gui = g.app.gui ms = gui.find_widget_by_name(c, 'main_splitter') ss = gui.find_widget_by_name(c, 'secondary_splitter') lf = gui.find_widget_by_name(c, 'logFrame') nav_in_secondary = ss.findChild(type(lf), "logFrame") target = ms if nav_in_secondary else ss target.addWidget(lf) # Equalize sizes - "100000" must be larger than any of the widgets... # and well less than MAX_INT target.setSizes([100_000] * len(target.sizes())) If you are using vertical orientation instead or horizonal (or maybe the other way around, I forget the terminology) this may not be what you want but you can change the orientation with the Window menu item *Toggle-Split-Direction* . Until we have more of these commands, post what functionality you would like to have and perhaps Edward or I will be able to write one.
