The System menu contains menu items relating to connection/disconnection to/from the Core server and DataStudio workspaces. The Open menu allows you to create or load displays into the currently active workspace. The View menu allows you to hide/unhide/rearrange panels of DataStudio The Tree menu has menu items, that act solely on model panels showing object trees. The Options menu allows you to change default configuration options of DataStudio. The Help menu has several help options for DataStudio and the system as a whole.
