If you use a desktop device, the Editor panel appears along the bottom edge of the screen. If you use a VR headset, the Editor panel appears as a free-floating panel that you can grab, move, and resize.
For both desktop devices and VR headsets, the layout and main functionality of the editor panel is the same. The main regions of the Editor panel are shown in the following image:
