The Views editor allows you to edit views. Views help you to organize your personal workflows: You can design different views for each of your displays or create views to flip to in certain use cases. Whatever you decide, you can customize your experience and Fieldcode work place components and their interactions across Single or Multi-Screen displays based on your needs. Every user of Fieldcode work place can currently create and edit views.

Click the Views editor  button in the sidebar.

You can configure views for more monitors if you want to improve usability. For example, you could name and label a view with screen 1 and the other one with screen 2 or even screen 3 and screen 4. For making this work you must log in to the Fieldcode Work Place in another instance and select the other view. As described above in Default Views you can for example set up dispatch view – screen 1 and dispatch view – screen 2 on two monitors.
