FlexPro 8 User Interface
FlexPro offers you a modern, visual user interface. Use drag & drop, for instance, to copy, move and link objects, to import data or to add a new curve or a new axis to a diagram.
You can work on your diagrams, tables and documents directly on the screen by selecting one or more elements and then modifying attributes such as font size, colour, line width, etc. using the toolbar.
FlexPro's Properties window displays the properties of the currently selected objects in a list. You can then directly edit these objects without opening dialog boxes. An especially powerful feature is the ability to work with several objects at once. For instance, the Properties window allows you to assign a physical unit to several data sets in a single step.
Have you experimented with your data and discovered a mistake in the process that you would really like to reverse? Have you accidentally deleted a dataset? Would you like to undo changes made to a diagram? That's no problem with FlexPro! The multi-level undo/redo function can be used in all areas of the program.
FlexPro's new Dynamic Help offers you a variety of help topics covering the selected object or the currently active workspace.
The Object Hierarchy window helps you keep even better track of your projects. It presents objects in a hierarchical structure. This helps you easily keep track of which objects are directly or indirectly linked to each other.
If you are working with FlexPro Standard or Professional, you can customize the user interface to your needs by changing the FlexPro menus or customizable toolbars. These versions also include a user manager with which you can configure the menu configuration and the permissions for individual users. This way you can, for example, distinguish between developers and users who only employ pre-defined analyses and thus effectively prevent operational errors.
A great help when working with FlexPro is the Quick Macro. With the press of a button you can start the macro recorder to record a series of repeatedly executed steps in an operation. After you stop recording you can then use another key to run the macro as often as you like.
