UI mod that removes the icons/reveals screen after you select something?

[Apposl]

It might be I am missing something obvious as a new player, but, I've got a few mods, and a few of my sections are quite full and block the screen when opened up. Security, for example. So I open the Security tab and select something to build, but all those turrets and security options are still there, blocking...like 90% of my screen and making it difficult to view the terrain/area I'm laying stuff out on. I'd like all the options to go away once I click on one, so I can again get a full view of the terrain and my mouse and placing that item.

Am I missing an option or way to do this, or is there a mod for it? I know I could disable some of my mods but that's no fun. Thanks for any insight. I might be missing something terribly obvious, I'm multi-tasking like crazy over here. Happy week all

EDIT: And oh, if not, and this is a problem that someone has created a mod to resolve, I would greatly appreciate hearing about it - thanks!

I've been wanting UI overhaul for these reasons. Mods like more furniture or more floors shouldn't have to add their own tab to the menu.

I am glad I'm not the only one, then!  I am doing a few small mods with my 10yo daughter but I think this would be above my paygrade. I just want everything to disappear once I make a selection, that's all. Hm...

Thank you for responding!

Well, you don't want it all to go away, just most of it. Once you select something, and it's material type, if it all goes away you can't see the info button. That is something you want to see. For instance without that you wouldn't be able to check damage from different material deadfall traps until after you build it. Not ideal.

I think the best would be a clear screen button. This button would close all menus when you click it, leaving your command active. This way you would get all the positives, with no negatives.
