Current Issues:
I spend a lot of time switching between the 3D viewport and window trays to access tools, often having to scroll down to find what I need.
Hello, try to use a private tab for each tray. For example, you can go to menu Window > New Tray, then choose only one for that tray. Then you only need to switch between tabs, not need to expand or collapse trays.
The result looks like this:

Thank you so much! This is a great tip—it’ll definitely save me from wasting time scrolling!

I also hope this feature comes back.
Alternatively, SketchUp could consider changing the default command from “show tray” to “toggle tray,” so we can use the same keystroke to show and hide the tray more easily.

I’ve had a shortcut assigned to toggle the window tray for a long time, but the issue is that it toggles all trays at once.
What I really want is the ability to toggle a specific tray when I need it. For example, if I’m thinking about materials, I’d like to press one key and have only the material tray pop up.
By the way, I got the inspiration for using a separate numpad keyboard from you !
@Cyentruk
Thank you so much! I’ve already tested your tip, and it might actually be the solution I needed. Now, I no longer have to keep scrolling down to find trays.
I can just use the keystroke for quick access! Your reply really helps me work faster !!
