Fast views</H1>
<P CLASS="Para" Label=Type>
Fast views are hidden views that can be quickly opened and closed. They work
like other views except they do not take up space in your Workbench window.&nbsp;</P>
<P CLASS="Para" Label=Type>
Fast views are represented by toolbar buttons on the <i> shortcut bar</i>,
which is the vertical toolbar at the left side of the Workbench window. When you click
the toolbar button for a fast view, that view opens temporarily in the current perspective.
As soon as you click outside that view, it is hidden again.</P>
<P CLASS="Para" Label=Type>
You can create a new fast view by dragging any open view to the
shortcut bar or by selecting <b>Fast View</b> from the menu that opens when you
click the icon at the left end of the view's title bar.</p>
