show a white pasteboard by unchecking Match Pasteboard to Theme Color in the
Interface pane of the Preferences dialog box.

As we explained in the Interface chapter, the panels you see depend on what was
done the last time you (or someone else) used the application. Because workspace
arrangement is such a personal preference, we tell you what panels you need to use,
but we don’t tell you where to place them. In our screen shots, we typically float
panels over the relevant area of the document so we can focus the images on the most
important part of the file at any particular point. Feel free to dock the panels, grouped
or ungrouped, iconized or expanded, however you prefer.
