Tabbed Workspaces

Use the tabbed pages capability of your browser to open workspaces, linked workspaces, and Navigator views in new tabs.

Browser client and browser settings

When your browser supports tabbed web pages, the Marvel Enterprise Portal browser client uses the browser's tab settings to determine how to open a workspace: When tabs are enabled, the workspace is opened in a new tab. You can set the properties of a workspace or the target of a workspace link to always open in a new tab, or you can open a workspace in a new tab by holding down the Ctrl + Shift keys while selecting the workspace with a mouse click. Then use the Ctrl + Tab keys to switch focus to the next tabbed workspace.

The desktop client and Java Web Start client use these same features to open a workspace, but it is always opened in a new window.

Workspace properties: Every Marvel Enterprise Portal workspace has properties that control the access and method of display when it is opened. The workspace will open in a new tab on browsers that are set to use tabbed pages when Always open workspace in new window is enabled.

Link target: The link wizard Target Workspace page has an option to Always open target workspace in new window. It shows in the link wizard Parameters page as openTargetInNewWindow. When enabled, this option opens the targeted workspace in a new tab if you are logged on from a tab-enabled browser.

Navigator item find: Find in the Navigator toolbar enables you to locate any Navigator item using simple or advanced search criteria. The Find window has an option to Open workspace in new window that will open the default workspace for the found Navigator item in a new tab if you are logged on from a tab-enabled browser.

On demand

You can open a workspace in a new tab from any context.
