Question - IDE Where are my room editor tools?

Hello,

I upgraded my license to GMS2 this morning. I am playing with a new project and created a new room, this
is what I see.

According to the help file, however, this
is what I should be seeing, correct? With the tools on the left side?

I have never opened GMS2 before this and this was my very first time creating a new room on the platform. Any help as to how to open the Room Editor window would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Go to the "Layouts" menu and select "reset layout" and see if that resolves the issue...

This worked, thanks! Not sure what would have caused the issue initially but we are good to go :)
You've just closed tabs. Most of them can be opened again from "Windows" menu (you can even have several of resource trees). In case of Room, it can be opened from "Room" menu (visible when in room).

Why is there no option to reopen the room editor if closed, without resetting the layout?

This seems like a simple thing that's been overlooked.

But... the post that's literally right above yours tells you how...? (and it has done so for three years already)

This seems like a simple thing that's been overlooked indeed... ;)
