X1 view change

Hey all,
Is there a way to make the main console view in X1 not so large so I can fit more things on it?  It's almost as if i'm using it at 800x600 resolution its so large. Would be nice if I could shrink it down so I can make better use of the docking options.
Is there a way to do this, or am I just stuck with a big clunky view?

    I'm referring to the overall look of the interface. There's so much stuff on the screen, that it would be nice if everything was smaller so I could fit more in.  I like the look of X1, just wish it wasn't so big and clunky so I could fit more things on 1 screen.

    Well don't show all the stuff. Each module can be hidden or shown. What you need show what you don't don't.

    hehe--which is to say, you Don't actually like the look of X1.  And you're far from being alone.  "Big and clunky" is probably the exact phrase which has been used most often to describe the building-block look of X1.  It's a, dare I say, "epic fail" in the design department.  Panup and Benstat are doing great work at picking up the pieces, making the program look and function better, but there's a definite limit to what they can fix since they can't get at the heart of the programming.

    I don't really have an issue with the way it's laid out as much as the fact that it looks like I'm using a program at 800x600 resolution. I also think the color scheme is dull, but maybe they'll improve that :).  I really hope there's a way coming soon in a patch perhaps that will allow the DAW to be used at a "higher resolution" type view.
