Rocket® InfoConnect Desktop (formerly a product of Micro Focus or formerly a product of Open Text) documentation, created before Rocket Software acquired certain products from OpenText, may include outdated references to "Micro Focus" or "OpenText", both of which are trademarks of OpenText or its affiliates. Rocket Software is not affiliated with Micro Focus or OpenText and has since rebranded these products as Rocket® products. You may also encounter outdated links in this documentation. If you do, please contact Rocket Support (support@rocketsoftware.com) for assistance.

3.3 Using Layouts

In InfoConnect, the size, location, and arrangement of the workspace and any open terminal or Web session documents can be saved to a layout file. When opened, a layout automatically opens and arranges all documents saved to the layout, opens and positions any docked panes (such as Scratch Pad or Screen History), and connects session documents to configured hosts.

If the workspace is configured to display documents as tabs, you can create a name for each tab. This can be useful when you use two different applications on one host. You can create a session document that connects to that host, then open the document twice, add a different name to each tab, and then save your layout.

In addition, by using layout files, you can access the InfoConnect .NET API in multiple instances of InfoConnect simultaneously.

NOTE:If you already have terminal session or Web session documents open when you open a layout, the layout opens in a new workspace.
