Cognos Dynamic Query Analyzer

IBM® Cognos® Dynamic Query Analyzer includes an Eclipse-based client user interface. Data is presented in a series of visual components called views. You can perform operations on the data contained in the active view. The results of these operations affect the content of other views, or cause new views to be opened automatically.

Views are contained within tab groups.

A tab group contains Minimize and Maximize buttons and can also contain buttons required by the currently active view. A tab group can be resized by dragging the side next to another tab group.

When a view is opened, it is displayed in the same location where it was last opened, unless it is being opened for the first time, in which case it is opened in a default location. A view can be moved from one tab group to another, or detached as a separate window.

To move a view to a different tab group, drag the title bar to the new tab group, and release it. To detach a view as a new window, right-click the title bar, and click Detached. To drag an entire tab group to a new location, right-click the title bar, and click Move, Tab Group.
