Work Views

The Work Views component displays a list of the work views that the user has created. Note that every user has an "Inbox" work view that, by default, displays a list of all work items that have been offered or allocated to the user (although the user can specify a filter for the Inbox so that it displays a subset of the work items available to the user).

An example work view list is illustrated below:

For details about the functions available from the work view list, see the "Using Views" topic in the TIBCO Workspace User’s Guide.

Access to each of the functions available in the work view list is controlled by properties on the Work Views component (in conjunction with user access sets, which are described in the TIBCO Workspace Customization and Configuration guide). For information about setting these properties, see Work Views Component Properties.

The Work Views component also publishes events for actions executed from the work view list. For information about these events, see Work Views Component Events.

Work Views Component Events

The Work Views component publishes the following events, which fire when the action described by the event occurs:

Event Description
List Item Select
(single click) Indicates the user has selected any line in the work view list. This includes individual work views, as well as the "My Work" and "Supervised Work" folders.

Fires when the user single-clicks a line in the work view list, or when the user moves the highlight bar on the work view list using the keyboard arrow keys.

This event also automatically fires when the work view list is displayed. It fires because the Inbox work view is automatically selected when the list is displayed.

List Item Removed Indicates the user has removed a work view.

Fires when the user either clicks on the Remove View button or chooses the Remove menu selection on the work view list, then clicks OK on the confirmation dialog.

Note that when a work view is removed, another work view is automatically selected, causing the "List Item Select (single-click)" event to also fire (by default, the Inbox is automatically selected, but that can be changed in Options).

List Item Execute
(double click) Indicates the user has executed a view in the work view list.

Fires when the user double-clicks a view in the work view list, or when the user presses Enter when a view is already selected (highlighted).
