Showing Layers AND Assets at the Same Time
I can't believe this suggestion doesn't already exist, but I work on a 32" or a 27" monitor all the time. I have plenty of screen real estate. Why not let me view both Assets and Layers panels at the same time?

I agree that constantly having to switch between these two panels is very tiresome, not sure why Adobe doesn't see the importance of having both open at the same time. Hope to see some progress on this one to speed up my work.

This is BIG. I hate going between the two. Need to be able to get to both really fast without keystroking or clicking. Please consider this!

Switching between the Artboards and Assets panels is time-consuming – and it doesn't have to be that way. It would be great to have both panels visible at the same time (as an option on top of the current solution).
Single panel – great for smaller screens
Both panels – great for big and huge screensDesigners are in the group of computer users who are likely to work on a modern, high-quality, big, hi-res screen. I mean here 27" - 40" and 4K and up. Please give us a way of utilising the screen estate we invested in and let us make our workspace more ergonomic.

The toggle between layers and assets is so annoyingly out of the way.

Allow to open the layers panel and the symbols panel at the same time (have each of them use half of the height of the left panel area).

I feel the Symbol Panel should be dockable like the other panels across the Adobe family . Docking below the Artboard panel isn't a bad idea.
Reason is the workflow become easier and faster rather having to click the symbol panel everytime to apply a symbol .

This software is so very poor because of basic oversights like this. Seems like your team were so keen on creating a 'minimal' interface that they decided to deny the user basic features & customizations.
My job is to design better user experiences yet this tool is among the worst I have encountered in my professional career.Was it not for the fact that my company now uses windows & I cant use Sketch I would have dumped this software already.

Quite frustrating having to flick between Assets and Layers all the time. Having both open would be perfect!

When you want to have open the Layers but then decide you need to see Assests it then closes the previous selected panel...this is really annoying if you want to be able to see and use both at the same time.
This feature may not be highly regarded but for me personally and maybe others having to re-open panels is tiresome and slows down my work flow would be good to lock them to the side like is all other adobe apps.
Thanks

Here's an example of the split view https://xd.adobe.com/view/8c57358f-741e-414e-8781-b7fcefaeb15b/

I would like the option for a split view with these two panels. (Take up the same horizontal space as 1 panel, but split the vertical space so you can see both)
