The user interface

The following figure shows the interface displayed to the user when starting Topbraid Composer

Topbraid Composer is an Eclipse compliant application. That is to say an environment gathering a set of visual resources divided into four categories:

1. Perspective- Perspective is a point of view that allows us to apprehend the information contained in Eclipse according to certain functionalities. Here, four points of view are offered to the user, in order from top to bottom: resource, Topbraid (the ontology editor) GIT and Java.
2. Menu- encapsulates a series of actions that can be activated. The choice of available actions depends on the perspective chosen.
3. Toolbar- Also adaptable to the perspective chosen, the toolbar has icons that are used to operate commonly used functions.
4. Views: are specific windows that allow you to represent parts of the information in Eclipse according to criteria specific to the view. The layout of the views also depends on the chosen perspective.
