IDEA dock window layout

Is it possible to change the way that docked tool windows in IDEA are laid out?

Currently, the bottom most window takes all the horizontal space, and the left and right windows do not take all the vertical space (because of the bottom window).

Is it possible to arrange the layout so that the left and right docked windows take all the vertical space, and the bottom one takes what's left over?

I.e. to have this:

+-----+---------------------------+-----+
|Tree |                           |Tree |
|     | Code                      |     |
|     |                           |     |
|     |                           |     |
|     |                           |     |
|     |---------------------------|     |
|     | Messages                  |     |
|     |                           |     |
+-----+---------------------------+-----+

Instead of this:

+-----+---------------------------+-----+
|Tree |                           |Tree |
|     | Code                      |     |
|     |                           |     |
|     |                           |     |
|     |                           |     |
+-----+---------------------------+-----+
| Messages                              |
|                                       |
+---------------------------------------+
