File

Handles the usual open/close/save/new file operations as well as other workspace global (query independent) operations like importing objects from other workspaces, adding and removing message keys, managing the master list of selectors, and configuring message servers.
 

Edit

Find  Displays the Find dialog, which facilitates searching through a query for specific information.

Go To
  Displays the Go To dialog.

Select All
  Selects all log messages in the active query.

Delete
  Deletes the selected log message(s) from the workspace.

Delete All
  Deletes all log messages from the workspace. This command is included only as a time-saver. Delete operations on large numbers of selected messages may take considerable time to
inform other queries, preserve selections, and re-sort. The delete all command provides a quicker way to clean house, ignoring the niceties.

Restore
  Restores any selected log messages that are marked as deleted. Messages become marked as deleted when they are deleted from the workspace in one query but are still contained by a second query that has auto-delete disabled. These messages are then in limbo, since they are no longer part of the workspace but are still displayed in the second query. If the messages are not restored before the workspace is closed, they are lost.

Next Bookmark
  Advances the focus to the first bookmarked log message below the current focus.

Previous Bookmark
  Moves the focus to the first bookmarked log message above the current focus.

Toggle Bookmarks
  Adds or removes a bookmark for the selected log message(s).

Clear
All Bookmarks  Removes all bookmarks from the active query.

ToggleMarks
  Adds or removes a mark for the selected log message(s).

Clear All Marks
  Removes all marks from the active query.

View

Properties   Displays the Message Properties dialog for all selected messages. (Double clicking on a message pulls it up as well.) Note that the message field of a log message can be exported to Notepad from there.

Sort   Re-sorts the active query. This is only needed if auto-sort is turned off in the query’s display settings and new messages have been placed at the bottom of the list.

Refresh   Refreshes the active query. This is only needed if auto-refresh is turned off in the query’s display settings.

Toolbar   Toggles display of the toolbar.

Status bar  Toggles display of the status bar.

Options   Displays the User Preferences dialog for setting various user specific options.

Query

Handles operations for creating and opening queries as well as setting filter and display parameters for the current query via the Filter and Display Settings dialogs. Also provides access to the Queries dialog and has an MRU list of queries in the workspace.

Connect
