| Shortcut bar</H1> |
| <P CLASS="Intro"> |
| The shortcut bar appears along the left edge of the Workbench window. This toolbar is always active; it cannot be closed or |
| hidden. |
| <P CLASS="Intro"> |
| The shortcut bar allows quick access to perspectives that are currently open, as well |
| as providing an easy way to open a new perspective. The shortcut bar is also |
| the place where fast views are created and opened. |
| <P CLASS="Para"> |
| Here is an example of what the shortcut bar looks like: </P> |

| <h2> |
| Open Perspective</h2> |
| <P CLASS="Para"> |
| This command opens a new perspective which is |
| selected by the user from a drop-down menu. All of the perspectives that are open within a single Workbench window are |
| shown on the shortcut bar.</P> |
| </DIV> |
| <DIV CLASS="Topic"> |
| <h2> |
| Perspective Buttons</h2> |
| <P CLASS="Para"> |
| These buttons provide a quick way to switch to one of the open |
| perspectives in the current Workbench window. |
| </P> |
| </DIV> |
| <DIV CLASS="Topic"> |
| <h2> |
| View Buttons</h2> |
| <P CLASS="Para"> |
| These buttons provide a quick way to display the |
| fast views in the current perspective. Fast views are essentially |
| minimized views that have been dragged onto the shortcut bar. Fast views |
| pop up when selected, and revert |
| back to their minimized state when the user clicks outside of the view. To |
| convert a fast view back into a normal view, click on the <i>Fast View</i> action |
| in the view's toolbar. </P> |
