Select the Demo solution, and click on RUN to execute it, or Edit to access its configuration.
Creating a New Solution
If you want to create your own solution, simply click "New" in the SolutionsManager, and follow the wizard steps.
The first step is to select the Product that the solution is intended to use.
To facilitate multiple scenarios in a cost-effective way, FrameworX has its product line organized into families and models. More information can be found in Product Family.
Once you've selected the product, you must choose what kind of solution you'll build, Windows or Multi-Platform.
Finally, you can add a description and choose a template for your solution here as well. For this example, you can select "HeaderLayout". When you're ready, simply click "Create New Solution".
