Workspace Types and Updates
According to the Solutions in which you work, or to your rights, you access your HOPEX desktop in:
• a public workspace
• a private workspace
• a read-only workspace
What is your workspace type?
Your profile defines the desktop in which you are working. This desktop defines the type of workspace in which you are working.
Only the desktops that allow to work in private workspaces have in their Main menu specific menus to manage their tasks:
• Dispatch
• Discard
See Main menu.Public workspace
In most of the desktops, you work on a public workspace:
• You can perform modifications.
• Your modifications are automatically saved and dispatched in the repository as soon as the window on which you are working is closed.
Consecutive modifications applied in different propriety pages are only published when the Properties window gets closed (e.g.: when you select an other object or when you navigate somewhere else through the interface via the navigation menu).• You can anticipate this automatic save.
• Your modifications are available for other users that are connected in the same way.
Desktop examples: HOPEX Enterprise Architecture, HOPEX Administration (Web).
Private workspace
In some desktops, you work in a private workspace:
• You can perform modifications.
• Your modifications are viewable by other users once you have published your work.
The other users must refresh their workspace to see your modifications.
Desktop example: HOPEX Studio
For more details on private workspaces and particularly on your work dispatch, see Repository and Workspaces
Read-only workspace
Some profiles provide a read-only access to the desktop.
Examples of profile: Process Viewer, Data Viewer.
You can, for example:
• add review notes to objects
• customize your personal settings
• customize your desktop
See details of Viewer type profile.
