Workbench allows you to create multiple tabbed views within the view pane of a Workbench window, as shown in Figure 58, by doing one of the following:
-
From the menu bar, select .
-
If tabs already exist, right-click on a tab and select from the popup menu.
The new tab has a view identical to the previous one.
As needed, you can use each tab to display a different view, component, or even host, all within the same Workbench window. When you select a tab (make it active), the locator bar shows the current path and view. Also, the menu and tool bars update to show appropriate options for the current view.
From the view of the active tab, you can copy items, select another tab, and then paste them into that view. You can also drag items into an active view from the (Nav or Palette) side bar.
In the Workbench view pane you can use tabs to help organize and selectively display information.
Only one tab may be active at a time. In addition to simply clicking on a tab to make it active, you can select from the menu bar to move to the next tab, moving left to right, or you can move to the last tab by choosing from menu bar.
To close a tab, do any of the following:
-
Right-click a tab and choose to close that tab, or
-
Right-click a tab and choose to close all tabs except that tab.
-
From the menu bar, choose.
The currently active tab is closed.
