Thanks for posting this. I was about to suggest more documentation for the Workbench.
I am a big fan of the workbench (especially working with Subversion) but I have to admit that I am still clueless about window management. How does one create a new window? When one selects a view, which window does it go into? For example, I seem to only be able to have the IDL console in the bottom right of my four windows. Can one have two files open at the same time? If so, with which file is the outline window associated? Fortunately, whenever I screw up the windows I know I can hit the "Reset Views" button to get me back to my four windows.
