Changing perspective

In the X4 Designer, you can switch between perspectives. Switching between perspectives reopens all tabs that were open when the perspective was last closed. The arrangement of the views is retained when changing between perspectives.

Note:

  • When you switch from the X4 Designer or BPMN Designer perspective to the Debug perspective, all tabs open in the current perspective remain open.

  • When you switch from the Web App perspective to the Debug perspective, all open tabs are closed.

  • To change perspective, click the desired perspective icon in the upper-right corner of the screen.

Resetting perspectives

To reset a perspective, do the following:

  1. Switch to the desired perspective.

  2. Select Window > Reset Window Layout in the menu bar.
