Define the Layout for the Workspace
To define the layout of your workspace, drag in the tools you want to use from the Workspace
Toolbox. The Timeline Controller appears as soon as you add any tool. For more information
about the tools and workspace toolbox, see
The Workspace Toolbox At a Glance .
Save a Workspace Layout
To save a workspace layout, choose Save from the Workspace menu bar command or click the
disk icon on the toolbar. You can also choose the Save As option from the Workspace menu
bar command. Workspaces are saved in workspace file format (.wks). The save function saves
the layout of the workspace only; it does not retain the content of the graphs.
Close a Workspace
To close (or delete) a workspace, choose Close from the Workspace menu bar command or
click the “X” in the right corner of the workspace. Neoview Performance Analyzer will verify
that you want to close the workspace.

workspace files saved in the workspace file format (.wks).

command Workspace>Rename.
