=== Working area and controls ===
[[File:UI_UBIKStudio.png|thumb|220px|upright|alt={{UBIK}} Studio main window|{{UBIK}} Studio main window]]
The main window of {{UBIK}} Studio is split into 3 sections, where each of the 3 areas can hold an arbitrary amount of controls. The arrangement of the controls is user specific and can be savedin the user's profile. In addition to the predefined sections, the user interface can be extended with working windows, where each working window can again hold any amount of controls:
:''View → New Working Window'' or {{key press|Ctrl|W}}
However, such working windows are considered temporary and are therefore not made persistent when the layout is saved.
====Using and connecting controls====
Each control provides different functionality for object creation/modification. Clicking the header of an empty tab strip in one of these areas with the left mouse button will bring up a context menu, that allows you to create a new tab page hosting one of the following controls:
| ''[[Workflow Designer]]''|| Design and assign customer specific workflows
|}
All controls in the {{UBIK}} working area can be connected to each others via the [[ListenTo]] mechanism. Set a control as ListenTo-Source of another control by dragging an object from it and dropping it to the header of the hosting tab of the target control. Release ListenTo by clicking the respective header and selecting the remove menu item, reconnect to the last source by selecting the reconnect menu item.
Close a control by right clicking the tab header and selecting the ''Close'' menu item.
