Event Log Explorer Concept
Workspaces
Event Log Explorer has a document-oriented architecture. Event
Log Explorer documents are called workspaces. When you start
Event Log Explorer first time, it automatically creates an emtpy
workspace Untitled.elx.
Worspaces store Computers tree and Opened event log views
including windows placement, filters, log loading options, etc).
Workspaces don't store Event Log Explorer Preferences. All global
options and preferences are stored in the user's registry.
If you maintain a large-scale network, it's a good idea to have
different workspaces for different group of servers. To open a
certain workspace, use File->Open
Workspace command. To save workspace use File->Save
Workspace or File->Save Workspace
As.
Computers Tree
Computers Tree is designed to provide you with quick access to
event logs. You can add any number of computers to the tree and
group them for better usability. When you click on the  sing near the computer
name, Event Log Explorer dispalys all event logs available on this
computer - double click on the log opens the event log
immediately.
Log Views
Log view is a visual representation of event log or event log
file. Log view consist of event list, description box and control
toolbar. You can open as many log views as you wish. Depending on
the user interface style, log views are presented either as MDI
child windows (for multiply document user interface) or as tabs
(for tabbed document user interface). Active log view is the
topmost log view (for MDI) or the active tab (for TDI).
All main menu commands for event log management apply to active
log view only.
