Views
CODIJY interface has two main views – the Editor (1) and the Result (2)
Editor opens the image for adding-editing colors
Result opens the result after CODIJY generates preview
Split View is enabled when you activate the Instant Preview (Pro)
Note: You can switch among these views using either:
Option 1. Tabs at the lower part of the window.
Option 2. Buttons in the lower right corner of the Navigator.
The two buttons on the Tabs panel help manage the view:
lets you switch portrait/landscape orientation in the Split view

The main toolbar with drawing and repainting tools is usually docked to the left or, as in some layouts, top sidebar.
It hosts 4 main sets of tools:
(1) Arm & Magnifier Glass for navigation and zoom
(2) Pens & Eraser for drawing/deleting masks
