1.4.3 Personal and public objects

In the upper right hand side of the interface you find an instant access bar showing the icons described below. Those icons

  • cannot be made accessible to other users, but are
  • available to you in each of your folders or workspaces:
home
This icon represents your personal workspace, i.e. your home folder (see section 3.1.2).
public
The public workspace represents the home folder of user anonymous. This folder contains all objects on your BSCW server that may be accessed anonymously. Click this icon to access your BSCW server under the guise of user anonymous without terminating your current session under your "real" user name (see section 4.4.1).
clipboard
Your clipboard may serve as an intermediate store. For information about its functionality beyond  Edit    Copy   ,  Edit    Cut   and  Edit    Paste   see section 3.6.1.
waste

address book
Your address book is used mainly to invite new members to your workspaces and to assign specific roles where necessary (see section 4.5.2).
