The interface is divided into three areas: the control
palette, navigation bar, and workspace area.
Control palette
The control palette contains
the following links:
- Workspaces: Displays a list of the available
workspaces
- Home: Opens your workspace home page
- Preferences: Contains options to customize
your home page and change your password
- Help: Opens the help system
- Logout: Closes the current session
Navigation bar
You can access all the available
menu items from the navigation bar. The set of menus and menu items
are based on your access levels and whether a workspace is open. The
Search feature is above the navigation bar.
Note: The Back and Forward
web browser navigation buttons do not work with the Rational® Focal Point™.
Use the navigation options available in the Rational Focal Point application
window.
Workspace area
The workspace area initially
displays a list of the workspaces of which you are a member.
Note: If you are not a member of a workspace, the Workspaces
page lists public workspaces only. To become a workspace member, either
contact the User Administrator, or on the Login page, click the Need
Access? link to register.
