SlickEdit Views
Views complement the file opened in the editor. You can move, resize, and customize views easily. All
the views and perspectives have live connectivity, meaning that if a file name or property in one view is
modified, then that change stays true for that item in every area of the workspace.
Views support editors and provide alternative presentations as well as ways to navigate the information in
your workbench.
Views also have their own menus. To open the menu for a view, click the icon at the left end of the view's
title bar. Some views also have their own toolbars. The actions represented by buttons on view toolbars
only affect the items within that view.
A view might appear by itself, or stacked with other views in a tabbed notebook. You can change the lay-
out of a perspective by opening and closing views and by docking them in different positions in the work-
bench window.
