Is there a name for the view area?

Is there an official name for the area where we see the Chor and Model and other such windows?

I believe I've only heard them officially identified individually as 'windows'; Choreography window, Modeling window, Action Window etc.

Generically, whatever is the main view is likely the active or main window.

Short of that I suppose it might be called the 'screen'.

 

(I'm looking for other references but I haven't found anything relevant yet)

 

 

From what I can tell, A:M's windows include:

- Community window

- Project Workspace or PWS window

- Modeling window

- Action window

- Choreography or Chor window

- Library window

- Decal window

- Material window

- Relationship window

- Timeline (often the term window is dropped but it's generally referred to as a window)

 

Within these windows the term seems to change to 'view' such as when opening multiple Camera Views.

We do see the terms change however; Bones window for instance when might more appropriately called Bones Mode or View.

Strickly speaking I believe the true Windows appear to be Model, Action, Chor, Material and Decal as evidenced by them showing up in A:M's drop down menu under Window (see attached image):

 

Edit: ToaA:M has just reminded me that there is a Relationship window too!

Is there an official name for the area where we see the Chor and Model and other such windows?

 

What about Window-Area? Something describing like "grey Background"-area.

 

See you
