The view on the right which takes up most of the area of the KOShell main window shows the active component. This exactly corresponds to the main window the component uses when run as a stand-alone application.
KOShell's Main View
When a component is loaded, the component own menus are merged with the KOShell menus and the component toolbars are added on the workspace.
Each new component is opened in a new tab. Using the
mouse button on each tab title, you can save the document in that tab or close that tab. The small button on the right bottom with a red cross also allows you to close the current tab.A special action common to all components is the -> action in KOShell menubar. It opens the Insert Object dialog which starts the KOffice component as if it was a stand-alone application.
