Document windows

Previous section: Tool windows

This topic contains the following sections:

• Showing multiple documents side-by-side
• Using floating windows

The area that is not occupied by the tool windows is the document window area. Usually, it contains one or multiple document windows.

At the time of writing, there are two different kind of document windows:

• Worksheet views

• Graph view

In the figure above, the document area is populated with one worksheet (WT1) and some graphs (GColeAll, GVFTH, GCole5, etc.). The worksheet WT1 is the active document, as indicated by the bold lettering in its tab. If you click on the tab named GColeAll, the graph GColeAll becomes the active document (see figure below).

Note that when changing from a worksheet to a graph some of the toolbar items are grayed out, and others become active. Moreover, if you right-click on the active tab, you will see context menu items for the worksheet (if the tab belongs to a worksheet, as can be seen in the next figure).

Alternatively, if you right-click on a tab that belongs to a graph, you will see context menu items for the graph (see figure below).
