The workspace interface first displays a blank canvas, with a navigation bar and its buttons. The key difference when compared to the standard interface is that you may open any number of panels, using the buttons on the navigation bar or running reports. The panels all coexist on the canvas, and you can resize and move any of the panels, similar to windowing systems such as Microsoft Windows or Apple Macintosh.
The principal differences to the standard interface are:
- The ability to multi-task more easily. For example, in the same window you can be viewing different reports while editing several issues
- Workspaces enable drag-and-drop between panels. For example, you might drag an open issue onto a report that is displaying closed issues. ExtraView will then close the open issue and update the report panels
- It's quicker to move between ExtraView functions
- In general, workspaces are extremely useful for power users, while the standard interface is more appropriate for a structured environment where you do one thing at a time.
