The Evidence Workspace of a case, is the principal location where evidence is managed from. It comprises of several different views of the evidence, as well as functions for inserting, modifying and removing it.
With the move to a tabbed UI, the evidence workspace should normally reside in the content panel of a case tab. As UIM pages can only exist in one tab, the infrastructure provides a set of VIM files containing the functionality of the different pages in the workspace.
Each page of the workspace is typically provided as a Links VIM file as well as a View VIM file. The Links file contains the page level ActionControl elements while the View page contains the main implementation code. This separation allows the addition of any custom links that may be required.
