Custom layouts are specific to each interface where they are created, e.g. if you create a custom layout in the Product Explorer interface, that custom layout will not be available to apply in the Project Explorer, as there are different fields relevant to each interface.

Creating a Custom Layout

 

The easiest way to create a custom Layout is to rearrange and re-size the columns in an existing Layout and then click the Save As button in Custom Layouts section of the ribbon:

This will open the following interface where you can name your custom Layout, add/remove columns, and choose the order and even the width of the columns:

You can use the Sorting tab to set a particular sort order for columns:

If you want to group by any columns, you can use the Group/Ungroup buttons to set this:

When a Grouping has been set, your layout will default to this grouping:
