Workspaces and Pages

Workspaces

A workspace is a saved layout of pages, plot panes, and floating gauges. Workspaces let you switch between different analysis setups without reconfiguring plots each time.

Managing Workspaces

Access workspaces from:

  • Workspace menu — quick switch between saved workspaces
  • Workspace Explorer tab in the left drawer (primary window only)
  • Ctrl+W — workspace search dialog

In the Workspace Explorer:

  • + New — create a new workspace
  • Click a workspace name to switch to it
  • Rename, duplicate, or delete workspaces from the context actions

Each workspace remembers its pane layout, open pages, plot configurations, and floating gauge positions.

Pages

A page is a saved collection of plots within a workspace. Pages are the tabs shown across the top of each plot pane.

Page Explorer

The Page Explorer tab in the left drawer shows all saved page files. Pages are stored as individual files that can be shared between workspaces.

  • Click a page to open it in the currently selected pane
  • Ctrl+P — page search dialog for quick access

Page Tabs

Each pane shows page tabs along the top:

  • Click a tab to switch pages within the pane
  • Close a tab with the X button, or Ctrl+Q to close the selected page
  • Ctrl+Shift+Q — close all pages in the pane
  • Page Up / Page Down — cycle through open page tabs
  • Ctrl+Page Up / Ctrl+Page Down — switch between plot panes

In layout editing mode, each pane has a Navigator Channel selector. This channel drives the preview cursor position when using playback, helping you follow a specific signal as you scroll through the log.

Pane Layouts

EmVision supports 1 to 4 plot panes arranged in a grid. Cycle pane count with the toolbar button or Ctrl+1 through Ctrl+4.

Each pane is independent — it can show different pages and plot configurations. Ctrl+Page Up / Ctrl+Page Down moves focus between panes.

Auxiliary Page

Ctrl+` toggles an auxiliary page area above the main pane grid. This provides an additional full-width plot row, useful for a dedicated track map or lap matrix above your channel plots.

Resize the auxiliary split by dragging the divider. The split ratio is saved per workspace.
