<p>Add source-reviewed, step-by-step OpenSite user workflow</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>__NOTOC__<br /> {{OpenSite scope}}<br /> {{OpenSite lesson<br /> |id=opensite.help.arrange-workspace<br /> |summary=Show the panels and tools you need without confusing layout with model data.<br /> |prerequisites=The desktop build. Save open engineering files before experimenting with layout.<br /> |steps=<br /> === Switch workbench ===<br /> Choose Start or Python (when installed) in the workbench selector. Switching changes available commands; engineering documents, script editors and plot tabs stay in the shared central area.<br /> <br /> === Find open views ===<br /> Use central tab headings, {{MenuCommand|Window}} entries, or {{KEY|Ctrl}}+{{KEY|Tab}} and {{KEY|Ctrl}}+{{KEY|Shift}}+{{KEY|Tab}} while the central workspace has focus. Check which kind of tab is active before saving or running.<br /> <br /> === Show a hidden panel or toolbar ===<br /> Use {{MenuCommand|View}} panel entries and {{MenuCommand|View → Toolbars}}. The Python console and debugger are distinct surfaces; some are intentionally hidden until requested.<br /> <br /> === Restore a usable layout ===<br /> Use {{MenuCommand|View → Reset layout}} when panels are off-screen or the arrangement is unusable. A layout reset is a presentation action, not a document rollback or a reset of material values.<br /> <br /> === Adjust appearance ===<br /> Select an available Light, Dark or Slate theme under Appearance, or use Preferences. Font, toolbar/task placement and new-view defaults are documented in [[OpenSite/Guides/Set preferences]]. Existing views can retain their own presentation settings.<br /> |result=You can recover panels and navigate open tabs while keeping document data intact.<br /> |limitations=Saved named workspaces and arbitrary custom workbench/menu composition are not established user workflows in this baseline.<br /> }}<br /> <br /> == Continue learning ==<br /> [[OpenSite/User manual|User manual]] · [[OpenSite/Tutorials|Tutorial pathways]] · [[OpenSite/Support|Get help]]<br /> <br /> &lt;div class=&quot;os-page-nav&quot;&gt;{{Docnav|OpenSite/User manual|OpenSite/Guides/Navigate a viewport|OpenSite/User manual|User manual}}&lt;/div&gt;<br /> [[Category:OpenSite documentation]]</div>
