Projects

Create project

To create new project click on + New project button in the left menu at the homescreen. Project name must begin with a letter and may contain letters, numbers and underscores. Other symbols are not allowed so far. AIMES DOES make a difference between capitals and lowercase letters in the project name. This means you can have two different projects with names «Business» and «business». The maximum project name length is 128 symbols.

Rename project

To rename project right click on its name in the left menu on the homescreen. Change project name in the pop-up Edit project menu. Left click anywhere outside this pop-up menu and the changed name will be saved.

Back up project

Currently direct back up of projects is not supported. There are two alternative options:

  • Autosave
  • Export and then Import.
