Yeah, thanks for the workaround.. I'll try that if I can't get a script to do the menu work for me, but do you think you'll add a user command / toolbar option / windows message to do a quick toggle, perhaps in the next version of xplorer2?
I have a feeling a script to do the menu work quickly would work, if anyone is listening who knows vbs, let me know!
there's no command to "switch pane tiling" so no script will help you
but if you assign a keyboard shortcut to the layouts as i suggested (Window | Organize) you won't need any vbs

I don't really know what "switch pane tiling" is or what you were getting at, sorry, but that's probably because I wasn't clear - I haven't done any of this work but I know there are scripts/etc that can control a GUI interface which could be used to automate actually clicking Tools -> Options...etc. I am using your workaround for now (whch means keeping the duplicate layout up-to-date) but my point was that I would prefer if switching the option in the current window could be made faster (and that I wouldn't mind learning whatever techniques would be used to do that GUI control since I don't know them :) ).
