Periscope is now organized with what are called 'views'. This has replaced 'tabs' in the earlier revisions of Periscope. Views are context sensitive, meaning they will only be displayed depending on what context level they were assigned.
Views can be added or modified by accessing the settings menu in the top right corner of the window.
While in the settings configuration, select the bottom icon to access the views. This will show you all the views that are currently set up, what their id is and the context they are associated with.
The Views main setting page is broken into 4 columns:
- Icon: You can set whichever icon you'd like to best represent the view that you're building. Chose from dozens of options to best fit your project.
- Name: What you'd like to call your view.
- View ID: The unique ID that you assign your view. These id's are assigned to the components that are created for Niagara behind the scenes.
- Context: The assigned location that the particular view will reside and be visible when navigating. IE if you had a "Database" view assigned to the top level (^), you would see this view when you're on the 'home' page. If you added a "Dashboard" view on a site level (site) when you navigate to any site, that dashboard would be available on the left side menu. The top 'home' page would not have this dashboard view as it was assigned to the 'site' level and not the 'top' level.
