First Step - Project Center | Home Page | Positions Page | Ribbons | Keyboard Shortcuts
You can access this page from the blue navigation menu on the home page.
1) It is the strip where general commands are located. In this ribbon, you can perform basic project-related functions such as creating a new project, deleting, renaming, adding to favorites, and cutting, as well as going to the sections page, changing project preferences, changing project information, loading a project from the desktop, and sending a project to the desktop.
2) This is the section where you can see all your projects, the projects you have added to your favorites, the projects you have recently changed and the main folders you have created. When you click on the project center title, you can see all the projects that are not assigned to any folder in the 4th section. When you click on the main folders you have created, you can see all the projects under that folder in the 4th section. Also in this section is the Manufacturing Units tab. This tab ensures that all positions in the projects you create are sent to the production stage, and you can track the production of your projects from here.
3) It is the recycle bin where deleted projects are stored. When you click on this section, you can see the list of deleted projects. If there is a project you want to undo, you can right-click on it and select Undo. Once you empty the recycle bin, you can't get projects back.
4) This is the section where all the projects you have created are listed. In this section you can create new folders or new projects. When you create a new folder, you will see the folder you created in Section 2. When you create a new project, you will see your project under the folder you are in.
5) This is the section that shows the details of the project you are selected on. You can also rearrange your project's information when you click on the information in this section.
6) This is the section that shows the drawn positions of the project you are currently selected on and the technical information of these positions. When you click on any of the drawn positions, you will go to the window where you can edit that position.
7) Navigation is the section where the navigation bar is located. You can switch between previous and next pages by clicking the forward, back and up arrows.
First Step - Positions Page | Home Page | Project Center | Ribbons | Keyboard Shortcuts
You can access this page by double-clicking on any project from the project center.
1) It is the strip where general commands are located. In this ribbon, you can perform basic functions for the position such as creating a new position, deleting, renaming, cutting, find and replace, as well as functions such as going to the sections page and calling positions from other projects. Thanks to the other tabs on this strip, you can view the way your positions are displayed, all other technical settings of the project, view reports and outputs, and transfer data to the CNC machine.
2) In this section where your project information is located, you can allocate costs, save documents and add notes about the project.
3) It is the recycle bin where deleted position are stored. When you click on this section, you can see the list of your deleted positions. If there is a position you want to undo, you can right-click on it and select Undo. Once you empty the recycle bin, you cannot take the positions back.
4) This is the section where all the positions you have drawn are listed. In this section, you can create new subfolders or new positions to group the positions. When you create a new subfolder, you will see the subfolder you created in this section. You can group positions into subfolders by drag-and-drop. When you create a new position, you will see the positions under the subfolder you are in. You can make edits by double-clicking on the position or right-clicking on the position.
5) This is the section where you can see the information about the changes you have made on the position in the past. In this section, you can also see the reports you have viewed for your position in the past, the basic profiles, glass panel fillings and hardwares you have used in your position.
6) This is the section where you can see the preview of the drawing of the currently selected position. In this section, you can see the drawn position more closely.
7) In this section called position manager, you can create new element information for the position, enter description and building location information for the element you created, and follow the manufacturing assignments of the position.
8) Navigation is the section where the navigation bar is located. You can switch between previous and next pages by clicking the forward, back and up arrows.
