Turning on/off Tabs
When you create a JRA recording, there are several options that you can choose to record or not (see 3. Create JRA Recording). If you decide to exclude something from the recording, the JRA Tool automatically excludes the tab that does not contain any information. This way, you will not get so many tabs to maneuver within the JRA Tool. You can, however, have the JRA Tool show all tabs, by turning on that function in the Preferences window.
To set preferences for the JRA Tool
- Click Window > Preferences.
The Preferences window opens (Figure 5-2).

- Select none, one, or both of the JRA preferences:
- Show every tab...-when you choose to see every tab, the JRA Tool shows all tabs in the interface regardless of if the tab contains any information.
- Enable extra information...-the extra information is only useful to BEA JRockit support personnel and this option is used if you have been asked to send a JRA recording to your BEA support representative.
- Click Apply for the settings to take effect.
- Click OK to close the Preferences window.
