You should see the test jobs or other jobs that you have submitted. Notice that they are color coded - if you are lucky, they will all be blue, which is the color of a successfully completed job. Jobs which failed are colored red. The jobs also have a status, such as "complete", "failed" or "running." Running jobs are shown in green. There are other colors for other statuses, which you will become familiar with as you submit and monitor jobs.
Overview
The row of buttons just under the Jobs tab is a set of filters which will show or hide jobs in the Jobs Panel. An important one to know about is the User Filter - when set, you will only see your own jobs. When unset, you will see all jobs. Click and unclick this button to see the difference. Note that if you are on Linux, you may have submitted jobs as the root or qubeproxy user which will be hidden if you choose this filter.

Let's have a look at some simple tasks you can do from this UI. First, click on one of your test jobs in the Jobs pane.

The next two are useful for finding out what went wrong with jobs that fail (or getting logging information from jobs that succeed). Most output will go to the first tab, Output Log. Some programs will send error messages and other information to a separate stream, which goes to the Error Log. Scroll to the bottom of either of these - error messages are coded in red, warnings in yellow and info (as determined by the program being run) in green. All of the tabs and their uses are explained in more detail in the User's Guide.
Submitting New Jobs
The Artist View UI can be used to submit jobs to Qube, through the Submit menu item at the top. However, in most cases you will be setting Qube up to allow submission directly from your application, such as Maya or 3dsMax. Submitting directly from applications was covered in the previous section. However, you can still use the UI to submit test jobs, to make sure that things are still working as expected, and to submit jobs for applications where you haven't installed the inApp interface.
The Frames Panel
The right side of the Artist View UI contains the Frames panel, which lists information about all the frames in the selected job. Notice that it has a separate refresh button, which allows you to query the status of just those frames. You can also right-mouse on any of the frames and kill them, retry them, suspend (block) them (and then unblock them), as well as marking them complete.
