    77After starting Blender, you will see two large docked windows and the main menu bar at the top of the screen. The larger window is the 3D-View. Here you will see the models you create. Below there is the Buttons Window, where you can adjust properties, create different materials or render the scene. For now, some basics about using the two docked windows will be enough:

    9 ||Left-click the border between two windows to adjust the size of them. Every window has a header containing some content-related controls. By right-clicking into the header, you can select its position in a small menu. You can also hide the header, but this is not recommended for the beginner.||[[Image(button1.jpg, right)]]||
    10 ||With the small drop-down menu at the very left in a window's header, you can change the type of the window. Right now, you have 3D-View and a Buttons window; this is the combination you will use most of the time. Anyway, try to play with the view menus and adjust your windows the way you want them. You may also use more than one window of a kind.||[[Image(button2.jpg, right)]]||
    11 ||You can also split a window to create a new window or you can join two windows to reduce the number of windows. To do this, click the border of a window with the middle mouse button. In the appearing menu, you can select whether you want to Join or Split windows.||[[Image(split.jpg, right)]]||
