+== Default Perspective
+
+When you connect Explore for the first time to a non-empty database, a Perspective is automatically created for you (see *Generate Perspective* below for details on how this is done.).
+This is called *Default Perspective* and it cannot be modified from the UI.
+However, if there are changes to the database, Explore updates the Default Perspective accordingly.
+If you want to customize the view, you can create a new Perspective.
