Working with pages in the workspace A Voyager workspace contains multiple pages, with the default workspace containing three pages. Pages are useful for grouping related analyses together in one workspace. For example, one Voyager workspace might represent the solution to a particular problem, with each page representing a step in the solution. You navigate between pages by using the page tabs and paging control at the bottom of the analysis window. Pages can be renamed, added, copied, and removed by right-clicking a page tab. When you save your workspaces, the active page status and the state of the tab panel are preserved. For example, if you save a workspace with page 3 active, page 3 will be active the next time the workspace is opened, and the tab panel will reflect the metadata and queries on page 3. Note: Each page has its own set of queries and components, which are not shared and which cannot be linked across pages. Queries and components on one page can therefore have the same names as queries and components on other pages.
