Workspace Home Page

A Nexus workspace allows you to collaborate on group activities as part of a team and might be set up to represent a department or division of your organisation, or a mine site or region, making it easier to securely manage and deliver information and data which is relevant to a particular audience.

When you sign-in to Nexus, the workspace home page is displayed. The workspace home page is your starting point when working in Nexus.

The options available to you in the left-hand Navigation menu, will depend upon your subscription plan and your (admin or user) role.

The Home option will return Nexus to the Home page from any other page.

The Nexus logo at the top of the menu will open the Micromine User Home, where you can manage your Account and Licences (with permission) and open Workspaces to which you have access:

The Collapse option will collapse the left-hand menu to provide more space at the right.

If multiple workspaces are supported, you can select between them:

  1. Click on <the name of the current workspace>.

  2. Select an option from the Workspace menu:

    • Select from a list of Recent Workspaces

    • View All Workspaces

Library

To meet the specific needs of your organisation, you can set up the structure of your workspace library storage in whichever way you want.

Version control is applied at the file level. Instances of the same file are shown at each upload destination.

Projects
