The image below is how I see my UI, I would like to make it smaller that way I have a bigger area to draw and animate. Any ideas how to make the UI smaller?

      Hello there. I'm very happy with Animate functionality but UI (especially sizing) is completely terrible! Please, fix it and try to make it variable. And if possible - ASAP!

      Thank you

        Go to edit > preferences > edit preferences... in the General tab, set UI appearence to Compact. In the Timeline click the little hamburger menu in the top right corner and select Short; that's as small as it gets in newer versions.

        The current Animate team seems convinced that everyone is using 4K monitors now, so the UI has become stupidly large compared to how it was just a few years ago. If you don't have a second monitor to shove UI panels onto, get used to using F4 to hide/show your panels as you need them.
