Default Switching screen layouts

Guys - I was watching some videos on the Recording Revolution website, and the guy is a ProTools user. He does something interesting whereby he switches from the full mixer view (as seen below) to the track view. Is this possible in Reaper? I very frequently resize the mixer portion of my screen to copy FXs from one track to another, and it would be great if there's an action or something that can do this. Anyone know?

Set the mixer panel as big as you want it and just use Ctrl+M to show/hide it.

Screen sets are a good solution for this.

1. Get your screens arranged how you prefer for a given task.
2. Press Ctrl-E to open the dialog, then select the "windows" tab in that dialog. Pick the slot you want to use, give it a name, and press the save button.
3. Rearrange your screens for as many different layouts as you want (maybe are limited to 10?)
4. Repeat steps 1-3 to as needed.

Check out section 10.11 of the Reaper User Guide v4.15 for more info.

Sheesh I don't know how may times I looked over the layout section without noticing it, haha.
