Workspace Management

Workspaces are the foundation of how you organize your work in Cygnus. A workspace contains all of your ephemeris studies, their configurations, and any generated data, saved together in a single .cygnus file.

What You Can Do

• Create New Workspace -- Start a fresh workspace for a new set of studies
• Open Workspace -- Resume work on a previously saved workspace
• Open Recent File -- Quickly return to a recently used workspace
• Save Workspace -- Persist all studies and generated data to disk
• Save Workspace As -- Save a copy under a different name or location

Automatic Protection

Cygnus automatically protects your work with Unsaved Changes Protection, prompting you to save before actions that would discard your current workspace, such as creating a new workspace, opening another workspace, or exiting the application.

Visual Feedback

• Status Indicators -- Toolbar indicators showing save status and generation activity at a glance
• Activity Indicator -- A status bar below the studies list displaying transient messages about ongoing operations
