  • A new Workspaces concept replaces both the previous workflow and workspace tools with one integrated environment.
  • A Workspace is a container for your arrangement of tools, docked windows, shelves, and your choice of marking menus.
  • When you launch Alias, four Workspaces are available.
  • Default, Subdivision, Visualization, and Markup.
  • Use the buttons here to switch between them as you work.
  • The changes take effect immediately, so your current task is not interrupted.
  • Some of the Workspaces are specialized based on your task.
  • While the Default Workspace provides a tool set for your general workflows.
  • You could easily customize a Workspace by adding more shelves or by modifying Marking Menus.
  • Updates to a Workspace are automatically saved for your next Alias session.
  • To create a new Workspace, click the plus icon at the bottom of the Alias window or use the Duplicate command from the Workspaces menu.
  • A new Workspace starts with the one that is currently active.
  • Type a new name for it and then add your custom shelves and Marking Menu assignments.
  • To delete a Workspace, right-click its button and select Delete from the context menu.
  • Or, click its trash icon in the Workspaces menu.
  • Note that you cannot delete a Workspace when it is active.
  • Note that Preference Profiles include your selection of Workspaces.
  • See the Preferences Profile video and help topics for more details.
