TIP: Changing Window Perspectives in Lotus Domino Designer

Hi everyone. Have you ever experienced working on an Application in Domino Designer with your team, and when they create new design elements it doesn’t show up on your side, forcing you to remove and re-open the Database Bookmark?

Another scenario is if you decide to change your Design Perspective from XPages to Domino Designer in order to view design elements such as Outlines, Pages, etc….only to sit there wondering why these designs aren’t showing.

This was never an issue in earlier versions of Domino Designer (prior to Eclipse Designer), but the good news is that you can sort this issue out in 2 simple steps.

 

Step 1 - Right Click on your Database’s Bookmark, and click on “Refresh“.

I hope this makes Domino Designer a friendlier Development Environment for you. Until next time.

Cheers
