System Menu
The available items in the System Menu depends on the connection state of DataStudio. If DataStudio is not connected to a Core server then only the Connect and Close options will be available.

Connect
Click Connect to call the login dialogue of DataStudio to connect to a Core (see Login section for more details).
Disconnect
If DataStudio already connected, the first menu item Disconnect can be used to disconnect DataStudio from the currently connected Core. |

Upon clicking Disconnect, DataStudio asks the user whether the current state of the workspace should be saved. Click Yes to save the current workspace configuration, otherwise click No.

New Workspace
Use this menu item to create and automatically load a new blank workspace. Before a new workspace can be created and loaded, DataStudio needs to close the active one, and will ask the user whether the current state of the workspace should be saved.

Click Yes, if you would like to save the current workspace configuration and continue to create and load a new workspace, otherwise click No. The Create New Workspace dialogue opens automatically where the user must specify a name for the workspace and click Yes.

Workspace names have to be unique per user. If the user attempts to create a workspace using a name that is already in use, DataStudio will ask if the existing one should be overwritten. |
Save Workspace As
Saves the current state of the active workspace under a different name provided by the user.

Recent Workspaces
This menu item will list the recently used workspaces, starting with the most recently used, in a sub-menu. Clicking on one of these sub-menu items will load the respective workspace.

Workspace Manager
This System menu item opens the Workspace Manager dialogue, allowing you to inspect and manage the available workspaces.
