Quick Tips: displaying filenames on Workspace icons


Perhaps long-forgotten, this is an age-old tip that I have used forever without thinking about it until someone saw me do it and asked.

First, go to the Workspace. That’s the page everyone uses for their homepage, that looks like an iPhone screen and that IBM doesn’t want us to use because it’s “the old look” of Notes.

Now click on the View menu. If Show Server Names is selected, deselect it and click on the View menu again.

Now that it is unselected, hold down the Shift+Ctrl keys and select Show Server Names.

OK, trivial. But handy when trying to clean up a user’s workspace with a mess of replicas and copies of databases. In dire cases, you may want to also unstack the icons.
