How can I open or close a view from the tool?

A view is a window containing a collection of controls (like text boxes, images, etc) on your screen. Carbide.ui is made up of multiple views. You may resize, open or close any view. To close a view just click on the x button over the top-right corner of the view. Once closed, the view can again be opened using Window -> Show View menu. Note that, you may revert the tool to its default UI orientation using Window -> Reset Perspective menu.
