Managing Windows In PLS_Toolbox and Solo
Managing numerous windows can be challenging, especially when you have limited screen space. PLS_Toolbox/Solo provides several tools for helping with this problem.
Figure Browser
The figbrowser utility (short for "Figure Browser") is available as a menu item at the top of all open figures.
Docking Behavior
There are three different docking behaviors you can set via the Edit>Options>Window Docking Settings menu of either Analysis GUI or the Workspace Browser:
- Do not dock windows.
- Do new plots and non-GUIs.
- Dock all figures.
Browse Icons
You can also set the Workspace Browser to display figures as icons by setting the viewfigures option to true. Do this via the menu Edit>Options>Workspace Browser Options or using setplspref from the command line using the following command:
>> setplspref('browse', 'viewfigures', 'true')
Once you’ve set the preferences, you may have to restart the Workspace Browser for the new preferences to take affect.
