Configuring perspectives

In addition to configuring the layout of your perspective you can also control several other key aspects of a perspective. These include:

The options available on the File > New submenu.
The options available on the Window > Open Perspective submenu.
The options available on the Window > Show View submenu.
Action sets (buttons and menu options) that show up on the toolbar and menu bar.

To configure a perspective:

Switch to the perspective that you want to configure.
Select Window > Customize Perspective.
Expand the item that you want to customize.
Use the check boxes to select which elements you want to see on drop-down menus in the selected perspective. Items you do not select will still be accessible by clicking the Other menu option.
Click OK.
