| Perspectives</h2> |
| <p class="Para" Type Label>A perspective defines the initial set and layout of |
| views in the Workbench window. One or more perspectives can exist in a single |
| Workbench window. </p> |
| <p class="Para" Type Label>Perspectives can be opened in one of two ways:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li><p>In the same (existing) Workbench window.</p> </li> |
| <li><p>In a new Workbench window.</p></li> |
| </ul> |
| <p class="Para" Type Label>Perspectives define visible action sets, which can |
| be changed to customize a perspective. A perspective that is built in this manner |
| can be saved, creating a custom perspective that can be opened again later. </p> |
| <P CLASS="Para"> The Workbench window displays one or more perspectives. Each |
| product determines initially what default perspective is displayed, in this |
| example it is the Resource perspective. A perspective consists of views such |
| as the Navigator as well as editors for working with resources. More than one |
| Workbench window can be open at any given time. </P> |
| <P CLASS="Para"> So far, only the Resource perspective (shown below) has been |
| used in this tutorial. This section will explore how to open and work with other |
| perspectives. </P> |
| <P CLASS="Para"> A perspective provides a set of functionality aimed at accomplishing |
| a specific type of task, or working with a specific type of resource. |
