CHAPTER 3. USER INTERFACE 3.4.2 79 Toolbox The content of the Toolbox tab in the Toolbox corresponds to Toolbox in the Menu Bar. The Toolbox can be hidden, so that the Navigation Area is enlarged and thereby displays more elements: View | Show/Hide Toolbox The tools in the toolbox can be accessed by double-clicking or by dragging elements from the Navigation Area to an item in the Toolbox. 3.4.3 Status Bar As can be seen from figure 3.1, the Status Bar is located at the bottom of the window. In the left side of the bar is an indication of whether the computer is making calculations or whether it is idle. The right side of the Status Bar indicates the range of the selection of a sequence. (See chapter 3.3.6 for more about the Selection mode button.) 3.5 Workspace If you are working on a project and have arranged the views for this project, you can save this arrangement using Workspaces. A Workspace remembers the way you have arranged the views, and you can switch between different workspaces. The Navigation Area always contains the same data across Workspaces. It is, however, possible to open different folders in the different Workspaces. Consequently, the program allows you to display different clusters of the data in separate Workspaces. All Workspaces are automatically saved when closing down CLC Protein Workbench. The next time you run the program, the Workspaces are reopened exactly as you left them. Note! It is not possible to run more than one version of CLC Protein Workbench at a time. Use two or more Workspaces instead. 3.5.1 Create Workspace When working with large amounts of data, it might be a good idea to split the work into two or more Workspaces. As default the CLC Protein Workbench opens one Workspace. Additional Workspaces are created in the following way: Workspace in the Menu Bar) | Create Workspace | enter name of Workspace | OK When the new Workspace is created, the heading of the program frame displays the name of the new Workspace. Initially, the selected elements in the Navigation Area is collapsed and the View Area is empty and ready to work with. (See figure 3.18). 3.5.2 Select Workspace When there is more than one Workspace in the CLC Protein Workbench, there are two ways to switch between them:
