Greetings Fred!

You will need to install the workshop plugin before the material will look 
somewhat
familiar.

* From the Main Toolbar in either window (dashboard or main map view), click 
"Tools" -> "Plugin Manager".

* In the bottom pane of the plugin manager window, select "Customized IDVs"
and click the green + button next to the "Workshop IDV" entry.  

* You will be prompted to restart the IDV, and once you do, you will see the 
same IDV that we had going during the workshop.

Let me know if this helps!

Cheers,

Sean
