Oh wow, you’re talking real old school AR!
I don’t still have a copy of 2 anymore. Don't recall which version of 2 it was though, not that my current computer could run it now anyway as it would be a 32bit app!
But yes…, there was a “Pod” at the bottom centre of the screen back then.
It gave you access to; References, Stencils, Tracing, er Transform Tool?, and a couple of other things if I recall correctly?
Bot no “Effects” that I can recall…? What kind of Effects were you thinking of?
But in the bottom Left corner was, I thought, the Tool Picker for choosing your brushes?

I seem to remember that all Pods had little green “Tabs” that could be used to collapse the Pod attached to it. Leaving only it’s little green Tab visible.
Clicking on a Tab would make the whole Pod pop up or Hide it again (or could you click & drag the whole Pod out with the Tab…?)
But you should still have a Menubar at the top of the screen, if you click on; View dose that give options for which Pods are visible?
