Perspectives

A perspective is the arrangement of views, editors, menus, wizards, and cheat sheets in the Workbench. A perspective provides a set of capabilities that enable you to work with resources to perform a task.

Views provide different ways to navigate and work with resources. Each view has associated menus and may have its own toolbar.

Editors provide tools to create and modify resources.

Menu bars and context menus provide the items you need to create and manipulate resources.

Creation wizards guide you through the process of creating resources, for example, a project.

Cheat sheets guide you through complex tasks by either showing you how to perform the task or performing some of the task for you. A cheat sheet opens as a view in a perspective.

More than one perspective can be open, but only one perspective at a time can be displayed in the Workbench. When more than one perspective is open, you can select the perspective that you want to display from the Perspective shortcut bar.

Use the following perspectives in Sybase WorkSpace:
