3.2 DesktopArea
The desktop area displays screens and configuration pages for project components
such as controllers and functions. The desktop area shows only one screen or
component at a time. When multiple screens or components are opened a row of
tabs are shown in the upper part of the desktop area. Clicking on a tab activates
its contents for editing.
If there are more tabs open than can be displayed, navigation arrows in the upper
part of the desktop area can be used to scroll between them.

directly when selecting it on the screen.
