+====== I3D Workspace File ======
+The .i3d file format is an method of storing the Inspect3D application's workspace settings as XML, ensuring that they are both human- and machine-readable. Inspect3D allows users to save its current workspace settings from the {{:I3DSaveWorkspaceAs.png?20}} **Save Workspace As** or {{:I3DSaveWorkspace.png?20}} **Save Workspace** toolbar items. Previously-saved application workspace settings can be loaded and applied from the {{:I3DLoadWorkSpace.png?20}} **Load Workspace** toolbar item.
+==== Format ====
+As an XML document, an .i3d file is made up of hierarchical elements that are demarcated by tags, indicated by the < and > characters. An element consists of a start tag, <//elementname//>, and end tag, <///elementname//>, and all of the characters in between. Alternatively, an element can be defined by a single tag, <//elementname ///>.
+Tags can also contain attributes in the //name="value"// format, further describing the associated element.
+. The top-level element in an .i3d file is //workspace//. It contains a number of subordinate elements.
+. An .i3d file contains a number of different second-level elements. These include:
+  - //Library//: File path to the currently loaded CMO library
+  - //class_style//: Styles applied to classes of signals
+  - //ex_style//: Styles applied to excluded signals
+  - //vert_style//: Styles applied to vertical lines
+  - //PCA_Data//: Settings for [[sift:principal_component_analysis|principal component analysis]]
+  - //PCA_Prefs//: Preferences for the 6 PCA result sub-windows
+  - //query_info//: Definitions for currently applied queries
+  - //vert_style//: Styles applied to vertical lines
+  - //graph_para//: Settings for the 6 PCA result sub-windows
+  - //orig_pref//: Settings for the Queried Data window
+  - //Intermediate_Events//: Styles applied to any defined Intermediate Events
+  - //I3D_Info//: Version information for the Inspect3D application
