Tabs in Projects
When you have Owner access to a project, you have the capability to modify the top tab layout to meet your business needs. You may want to categorize lists of documents, forms, or other types of controls to give greater visibility into a certain portion of a project. You can control the tabs so that certain users can only see certain tabs of the project. In this way you can publish a document to a customer who has viewer access, and you can have other tabs that display internal documentation for internal editor type users.
You can access the screens to layout the tabs by selecting the menu tab of a project. By default there are 6 tabs to each project. These default tabs are Details, Documents, Forms, Security, History, and Menus. As soon as you begin to assign Modules to configure tabs on the project layout, the default tabs are removed. You will need to assign the default tabs if you want them to be available. When the Menu tab is selected, the following screen appears.
