+ − <p>
+ − An LTPDA Workbench is a collection of pipelines. Each pipeline can have sub-pipelines
+ − which are represented as <i>subsystem blocks</i> on the parent canvas. Nested subsystems
+ − are supported to any depth. </p>
+ − <p>
+ − Only one LTPDA Workbench can be open at any one time, but a collection of pipelines
+ − in a workbench saved on disk can be imported to the current workbench.
+ − </p>
+ − <p>
+ − Each block/element must have a unique name on a particular canvas.
+ − </p>

+ − The following annotated screen-shot describes the main elements of the workbench
+ − interface:

+ − <h2> Starting the Workbench </h2>
+ −
+ − <p>
+ − To start the LTPDA Workbench, click on the launcher on the LTPDA Launch Bay. Alternatively,
+ − the workbench can be started from the command window by typing:
+ − <div class="fragment"><pre>
+ − >> LTPDAworkbench
+ − </pre></div>
+ − </p>
+ − <p>
+ − You can also get a handle to the workbench so that you can use the programmatic interface. To do that
+ − <div class="fragment"><pre>
+ − >> wb = LTPDAworkbench
+ − </pre></div>
+ −
+ − If you loose the variable <tt>wb</tt>, for example, by using the <tt>clear</tt> command, then you can
+ − retrieve a handle to the workbench by doing
+ − <div class="fragment"><pre>
+ − >> wb = getappdata(0, <span class="string">'LTPDAworkbench'</span>);
+ − </pre></div>
+ −
+ − More advanced uses of the workbench command interface (such as creating pipelines from LTPDA objects), are
+ − described in <a href="lwb_buildProgram.html">Building pipelines programatically</a>.
