Introduction

The Welcome page is the first interface you see when you start FactoryStudio. This interface allows you to create and select projects, map to remote servers, and manage your FactoryStudio's license. 

There are three navigation tabs present on the Welcome page. These tabs are Projects (Project Workspace), Server, and License. 

Projects Workspace

The Projects interface allows you to view your FactoryStudio projects on your computer or on remote computers, and it allows you to create new projects. You can view your projects in several different ways: the 3D View (Image 1), Card View (Image 2), or Table View (Image 3).

Each image shown below is a complete FactoryStudio project.

Some Tatsoft's unique and powerful features for project management include:

  • This welcome interface is product version agnostic. This means you can manage and open projects that were created with different product versions without the need to upgrade the project in the field or to switch to the engineering tool in your computer.
  • Each project is a single file. All configuration( including tag definition, displays drawing, images and report templates) is stored in a single file for easy management.
  • You can open multiple projects at the same time or allow multiple engineers to work on each project.
