You can create and save one or more perspectives to display
your CICS® system resources
in different ways, depending on the function you are performing.
About this task
If you are performing a system administration role you
might want to only display a subset of CICS Administration
views, whereas if you are performing an operations role, you might
want to only display CICS Operations
views. You can create the layout of views that you want and save it
as a new perspective.
Procedure
- Open, close, or move views until you achieve the layout
you want.
- Click Window -> Save Perspective As on the CICS Explorer menu bar.
- In the "Save Perspective As" dialog, type a name for
the new perspective, such as Admin in the example
below, and click OK
Results
The new perspective is saved and becomes the active perspective.
The shortcut bar shows the active perspective as a selected button

next to buttons for other perspectives.
Note: When you save
a perspective, you save only the layout of the views and editors in
the workbench. If you change the width of a column in a view, that
change will be applied to that column in every perspective that contains
the view.
