This script is great! Always need something like this to keep my windows organized, I would like to ask however, is there a way to add other panels? The one other thing I would really love to have available is the attribute editor as a panel. Also is there only the two windows or can I make it three? For example, outliner and attribute editor both visible at the same time, with the third panel to house all the other tabbed windows.
Thank you. It is possible to add other panels, but the attribute editor is not a panel it’s a window. The easiest way would be to make a custom panel (scriptedPanel) an parent the attribute editor layout underneath. Than it would be just a line in the dualview.cfg file such as “Attribute.attributeEditorPanel.dualview_attributeEditorPane”. Currently you can only make two panels, perhaps next version .
Just uploaded a updated version, you can add the attribute editor by changing “$dualview_debug = 0;” to “$dualview_debug = 1;” in the dualview.mel but it doesn’t run very well because some functions can’t find the unparented editor anymore, this will cause maya to crash. i haven’t found a solution for this yet.

If you get this error on a Windows machine you will need a Maya python module called : win32com.
