About the Workspace Explorer in SharePoint Workspace 2010
SharePoint and Groove workspaces display in the Workspace Explorer. In addition to the window that contains the currently selected tool, the Workspace Explorer consists of the following parts:
Content pane
The Content pane lists the tools in the workspace.
To show or hide the Content pane, on the View tab, check or uncheck Content.
In Groove workspaces, a number displays next to each tool to indicate how many workspace members currently have the tool selected. Point at the tool to display a status window.
Workspace tool tabs indicate the number of members who currently have the tool selected. Point at the tool name to display a status window.
Tool area
The Tool area contains the tool you have selected in the Content pane. Depending on the tool, you may be able to change the layout of the Tool area by selecting options on the View tab of the ribbon. For example, in any Discussion or Lists tool, on the View tab, click Reading Pane to see options for changing the layout.
