Here's a screenshot of how I reduced my interface for working in Maya. Encircled in red (last used tool, snap buttons and channelbox/toolbox/attribute editor) are the only tools that I still want to see on my screen. Is there a way to get them in a new hotbox menu or marking menu? It'd be nice to actually work in full screen space since I only have a 17" monitor and am working in 1152*864.
