Any analytical data, related information, data explorers and toolbox
items are available on so called tabs, which have a lot of properties
making arrangement of visible items very convenient to the user.
Particular text, graphical information, data explorers or toolbox items
are displayed in an area on the application workspace, being surrounded
by a border. On one edge (mostly on top or bottom) next to the border,
there is a flag with a meaningful description of the contents of the area.
Mostly this is the name or subject of the object, information or tool-box
item currently displayed in there.
Example:
In the figure above, two tabs are available. The active tab is highlighted,
indicated by the dark-grey background and bold font style of the flag
caption.
The highlighted tab contains the IR spectrum of 1-Methyl-2-Pyrrolidinone.
The IR spectrum is shown within the tab area including spectral axes.
The name of the spectrum is displayed as flag caption.
There is a second tab in the back, which holds another spectrum of N,N-Di-Ethyl-Acetamide.
The flags provide a quick overview of currently available information
and let the user easily find and activate the topic of interest.
