Figure 2-2 shows a screenshot of XPS. XPS opens three main windows by default.
Editor Workspace
The main editor workspace appears on the right in XPS in Figure 2-2. The workspace
opens PBD (Platform Block Diagram) file and allows graphical editing of the system. The
main workspace also functions as a C source and header file editor of XPS. Users can also
view and edit other text files in the main window. Any number of text files can be opened
simultaneously in the XPS main window. The PBD file can be opened by double clicking
on the PBD file in the system tree view, or through the Project->View Schematic menu
item.
The PBD editor is described in more detail later in this chapter (see “PBD Editor,” page 49).
