A workspace is a particular configuration of panels, toolbars, charts and/or table layouts that makes up a trading environment. The Zeon Trading Platform offers a predefined default workspace. You can create not more than 20 custom workspaces either by modifying the default settings or by creating a new workspace from scratch. Custom workspaces can be saved as .wrk files and reopened whenever required.

Default workspaces

The Zeon Trading Platform will automatically load the default workspace upon startup. Default workspaces are located in the Zeon Trading Platform installation directory \DefaultWorkspaces\
Click Environment ->Workspaces to see all available default workspaces.

After making changes to a workspace, it becomes a custom workspace. Custom workspaces will automatically ask to save changes when you close Zeon Trading Platform. You can save locally to your computer. 

Keeping multiple workspaces open

During session, several workspaces can be loaded and kept open simultaneously. All opened workspaces are shown at the bottom of the panel. You can switch between the open workspaces by switching the tabs.
