Working with Panels
The workspace provides iNEWS users the chance to arrange its panels in a variety of ways to
best suit the needs of the user. Panel sizes can be modified, the layout altered, or users can zoom
in on a single panel.
Changing the Layout of Panels
The iNEWS system gives you several ways to view your workspace layout. You can change the
layout at any time. The layout you choose remains until you log out of the system.
There are four possible layout options:
Option Icon Description
#1 The default layout provides the Directory panel on the left, the Queue panel
on the top right, and the Story panel on the bottom right side of the iNEWS
workspace.
#2 The second option positions the panels in a 3-wide, vertical split with the
Directory panel on the left, the Queue panel in the middle, and the Story
panel on the right.
#3 The third option provides a two-panel simultaneous view, with a vertical
split. In this layout, the Story panel remains on screen on the right side of
the workspace. The user can toggle between viewing the other two panels
(Directory and Queue panels) on the left side of the workspace by selecting
that side and pressing Alt+Right or Left arrow.
#4 The fourth option provides a two-panel simultaneous view with a
horizontal split. In this layout, the Story panel remains on screen at the
bottom of the workspace. The user can toggle between viewing the other
two panels (Directory and Queue panels) on the top half of the workspace
by selecting that side and pressing Alt+Right or Left arrow.
