Updating Your First Workspace

Since you worked on files in your second workspace and promoted those changes to the same backing stream shared with your first workspace, your first workspace is now out of synch. Update the first workspace now to get those changes.

  1. Click the tab in the GUI window that contains your first workspace.

    If you have closed that tab, re-open the workspace using:

    File > Open Workspace

  2. Click the Update toolbar button.

    This brings the changes you promoted while working in your second workspace into your first workspace.
