The "Mod Tool" XSI Mod Tool 6 layout is not convenient to use as it looks nothing like XSI Mod Tool 4.2's layout.
To fix this problem, do the following:
Open XSI Mod Tool 6.
Hover to the menu bar where one sees File, Edit, etc.
Select View>Layouts>Default.
Select View>Optional Panels> Show All
Hover to the empty space on the menu bar. It is next to the help menu.
Right click it and enable the following:
Module Menus
Construction Mode
On the top right of the 3D "user" or "camera" view, click the icon that looks like a square inside another square. This will separate your views into Top, User, Front, and Right.
If you cannot find the icon, look near the big arrow at the top right of the screen. It is a little down and then left from there.
