On dataZoa's Main Page

Toolbar Area

The top green stripe of every dataZoa page is the toolbar area, with quick access to key features. The tools are split into two groups...

...data-related...
 
Web
Upload/Update
Corkboard
 ...and everything else.<.b></td>
</td>

</tr></table>

<b>Standard Tabs

There are four standard tabs, always present:

dZ Dropzone
Workbench
Following...
 + 

dZ DropZone and Workbench tabs

In the first two tabs, you can see and work with all of the series in you account.
  • dZDropzone - All your series in their natural groupings (that is, dataBlocks)
  • Workbench - All your series, without groupings, for maximum flexibility

Following... and Add (+) tabs

The other tabs are like "dashboards," holding individual displays, organized as you like.
  • Following... - Whenever you send other peoples' dZ displays to your account, they "land" on this tab.
  • Adding a User Tab - You can add your own tabs as dashboards tailored to particular topics.

Throughout dataZoa (and beyond!)

These features show up in various ways throughout dataZoa, and in some cases, are seen "outside" of dataZoa-proper.

Analysis and Dissemination
