The Vivado IDE provides predefined view layout configurations to complete specific design tasks, such as the I/O Planning layout or the Design Analysis layout. These layouts define the location and size of views commonly used for a specific design task. You can also create, remove, and reset user-defined layouts using the following Layout menu commands:

Save Layout As
Creates a user-defined layout based on the current layout configuration.
Remove Layout
Removes the user-defined layout of your choice.
Undo
Undoes the most recent view manipulation.
Redo
Redoes the most recent view manipulation.
Reset Layout
Restores resized or moved windows to the original configuration for the active layout.
Note: User-defined layouts are saved to a layout file in your installation directory for use in all your design projects. For more information, see Outputs for Environment Configuration in Appendix B.
Tip: You can also use predefined layouts as described in Layout Selector in Chapter 2.
