How To Create a New Page

The Console and Chart Groups can have several active layouts organized into Pages. Each Page contains a different set of panels (Charts, Watch Lists, Account Panel etc). Simply click on a Page tab (at the bottom of the window) to switch the Console view to the new layout. A Page can be removed by clicking on the "X" button on the right side of the page name label.

When you first create a workspace, the Console will be populated with a default set of pages (see bottom of the Console window). If you would like to create a new page, click on the New Page button on the right side of the page tabs. Alternatively, choose File -> New -> New Page from the top menu bar.
