Variable explorer
To view all your active variables and their current values in the notebook, click on the variable explorer icon in the top toolbar.
Data Viewer
To view your data frame in a more visual "Excel" like format, open the variable explorer and to the left of any dataframe object, you will see the data viewer icon which you can click to open the data viewer.
To export your notebook to a Python file (.py), click on the Convert to Python script icon
in the top toolbar
Plot Viewer
If you have a graph (such as matplotlib) in your output, you'll notice if you hover over the graph, the Plot Viewer icon
will appear in the top left. Click the icon to open up the graph in the Plotviewer which allows you to zoom on your plots and export it in formats such as png and jpeg.
Switching Kernels
The notebook editor will detect all kernels in your system by default. To change your notebook kernel, click on the kernel status in the top toolbar at the far right. For example, your kernel status may say "Python 3: Idle". This will open up the kernel selector where you can choose your desired kernel.
Remote Jupyter Server
To connect to a remote Jupyter server, open the command prompt and search for the command Specify remote or local Jupyter server for connections. Then select Existing and enter the remote Jupyter server URL. Afterwards, you'll be prompted to reload the window and the Notebook will be opened connected to the remote Jupyter server.
