Set up a New Project
After starting ECOCLASS in a completely empty working directory
("workspace"), the workbench will
contain only three empty frames ("views"). The Navigator
panel in the upper left is where you manage the product systems that
you will create soon. Since every product system belongs to a
"project", this has to be created first.
There are three ways to create a new project:
-
Right Mouse and "Project"
- Click the right mouse button at an empty spot within the
Navigator panel. Select "New → Project"
from the popup menu. A wizard opens and offers a selection list.
- Open the list entry "Ecoclass" (by double click or
clicking on the small cross) and choose "Create New Project".
Click the "Next" button.
- Enter a meaningful name for the project.
- Clicking the button "Finish" will close the
wizard and a new project with the selected name appears in
the Navigator panel.
-
Right Mouse and "Other"
- Click the right mouse button at an empty spot within the
Navigator panel. Select "New → Other"
from the popup menu. A wizard opens and offers a selection list.
- Open the list entry "Ecoclass" (by double click or
clicking on the small cross) and choose "Create New Project".
Click the "Next" button.
- Enter a meaningful name for the project.
- Clicking the button "Finish" will close the
wizard and a new project with the selected name appears in
the Navigator panel.
