Window management
Forte for Java has the following features which, when combined, give you a great deal of flexibility in managing windows on your desktop:
- Workspaces, meaning window sets, each geared toward a given task (for example, editing, GUI editing, browsing, running, or debugging). When you switch workspaces, the current set of windows closes and a another set opens.
- Multi-tab windows, which hold multiple open files at once and enable you to flip between files by clicking on a tab.
- Docking of windows, which enables you to change the windows in which window contents are displayed (for example, you can move a source file from a multi-tab Editor window to its own window or to a different already existing container window, such as the Output Window).
- Cloning of windows, which enables you to have the same file open in two different windows, making it easier to work on two different parts of the file at the same time. Cloning is available for the Editor, web browser, and help windows.
