More Productive Editor Layout in Unity

Positioning gameobjects is simpler with a useful layout. Here is the saved custom layout named “Professional” for use:

Unity layout with top left Scene view and bottom left Game view.

Clicking on the Scene tab, the Game tab or other tabs allows you to drag the pane to a desired location.

click Scene tab and drag to desired location

Here the over under Scene / Game allows for a convenient double view while making changes.

After starting with a Tall layout, drag the Game view to the bottom and then slide the horizontal divider up to match the neighbor Project Layout.
