Remarks
When the id parameter is passed as a string, it specifies the title of a view. When id is passed as a Long, it specifies the 1 based index of the view in a given frame. The index value depends on the Workspace UI Preferences settings:
- The index is based on the left to right progression of tabs. The user can rearrange this order by dragging tabs with the mouse.
- The index is determined by the order in which the Windows are opened. The user cannot change this order.
- There is only one view per frame.
